Made in Italy @ James Hyman Gallery


  Very exited about this coming event I will be covering for Luxusure.fr for Fashion Night Out @ The James Hyman Gallery in London's Savile Row.
This incredibly fab gallery will be presenting fourteen works by celebrated German photographer Albrecht Tubke.

The photographic series titled 'Made In Italy' is Tubke's first solo UK exhibition, in which he explores the many ways people present their public personae, by attempting to distil the essence of his subjects.


The intimate series of portraits draws its inspiration from August Sander's  now legendary 'People of the Twentieth Century'  series.
Tubkke allows his subjects to choose style themselves in their best frocks, decide stance and gaze, enabling the photographer to capture their perceived public image.
A sort of pre-planned style blog


Tubke's previous work has been part of the 'How We Are: Photographing Britain' at the Tate Britain, 'New Photographers 2006' at Antwerp's Museum vow Fotografie amongst others.
His work can be found at in the public collections of several art institutions across the continent including  Victoria and Albert Museum in London,
La Maison Europeennede la Photographie Paris .   


Private View 14th of September

The exhibition will be opening for the public on 15th of September - 6th of November.
