Verified profile


From June 15th to September 1st, 2024, Palazzo Reale presents Philippe Halsman. Flash of Genius. Philippe Halsman is among the greatest portraitists in the history of photography, having signed 101 covers of LIFE, more than any other photographer, and creating extraordinary portraits for their strength and psychological depth. Halsman was able to work constantly between observation and introspection, immediate intuition, flashes of genius, and refined technique. For his iconic series "Jumpology," he managed to make crowned heads, scientists, heads of state, and screen stars jump in front of his lens, and with Salvador Dalí, he invented images like true artistic performances. This first Italian retrospective, realized in collaboration with the Philippe Halsman Archive in New York, celebrates his work by presenting over 100 photographic prints, enriched with videos and various materials. A series of extraordinary images, the result of great professionalism, subtle irony, and profound lightness.
