The usual distance and hygiene rules also apply when visiting the Helmut Newton Foundation. We would like to ask you to book the tickets in advance online at: www.smb.museum/tickets Spontaneous visits are only possible if time ticket windows can be allocated on site.

Due to these special times, we have extended the current exhibition Body Performance untilSeptember 20. In this group exhibition, contemporary photo sequences are combined for the rsttime, whose origins lie in performances, in dance and stage events, supplemented by conceptual series of images.The focus is always on people and their bodies, and the photographer has documented or interpreted the action, sometimes even initiated it.

Even though we had to postpone three Newton exhibitions in Buenos Aires, Daegu and Barcelona due to the Corona crisis, there are currently Newton works on display in Turin and Munich, there until January 2021 as part of the spectacular „Thierry Mugler - Couturissime“ show.
Until September 20, the GAM (Galleria Civica d’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea) in Turin showsHelmut Newton. Works: a representative selection of 68 prints from different decades and the three main genres of fashion, nudes and portraits.

In the exhibition Thierry Mugler - Couturissime at Kunsthalle München, the congenial collaboration between Newton and Mugler since the late 1970s got its own Newton room, with the 1990s being the most productive and experimental time of their cooperation. Newton worked individually for every couturier and their styles, including Mugler. In his fashion-based work, Newton made no distinction, stylistically or compositionally, between advertising, editorial and freelance work.At the core of Newton’s staging art is a fashion design that is always characteristic, as well as a woven parallel story that occasionally contains a pinch of suspense, such as by Alfred Hitchcock, alsofor Mugler’s designs. It is often not clear where reality ends and ction begins; everything becomes aconfusing but subtle game of power and seduction.

Finally, we would like to invite you to our next exhibition America 1970s / 80s with works by Evelyn Hofer, Joel Meyerowitz, Sheila Metzner and Helmut Newton in the Helmut Newton Foundation, which will be on view from October 9, 2020.
