Verified profile


The Bisazza Foundation hosts the photographic exhibition Norman Parkinson & Fashion Photography 1948-1968, a retrospective that traces twenty years of fashion photography through the eyes of Norman Parkinson and four other internationally recognized and celebrated photographers: Milton Greene, Terence Donovan, Terry O'Neill, and Jerry Schatzberg. Curated by Cristina Carrillo de Albornoz and organized by the Bisazza Foundation together with Iconic Images - one of the most important worldwide agencies specialized in managing art photographic archives - the exhibition is divided into seven different thematic sections - Glamour, Swinging Sixties, City Style, The Art of Travel, Postwar Couture, Exceptional Gowns, and Iconic - within which seventy works are exhibited. Iconic images that not only tell the spirit of change of that period (1948-1968), but above all reveal a new way of doing photography and representing women, especially in fashion editorials and portraits. Terence Donovan and Terry O'Neill, both English, captured the magic of the London atmosphere of the 1960s. Milton Greene and Jerry Schatzberg were American directors and photographers. The former became famous for fashion editorials and for photographing numerous celebrities, including Marilyn Monroe. Jerry Schatzberg, a true talent in directing, was able to create some of the most intimate and iconic portraits of his generation, with an undisputed sensitivity and narrative quality. A completely visionary approach, decidedly outside the box, will lead Norman Parkinson to portray, for the first time in those years, models not in the usual photographic studios but in new, more real contexts, preferring streets, beaches, places with incredibly exotic charm. In each shot, full of poetry, Parkinson manages to represent and enhance to the maximum the concept of feminine elegance.
