The Michael Hoppen Gallery
The Michael Hoppen Gallery in Chelsea is paying homage to the photographers who revolutionised the genre of fashion photography. The display, coinciding with London Fashion Week, celebrates the work of photographers like Martin Munkasci, Man Ray and William Klein. These artists left behind the dull and closely-monitored style shoots of the 1930s to challenge expectations while staying within the confines of their brief. This powerful exhibition shows how these photographers merged the rigid boundaries between art and fashion to produce some of the most enduring and iconic fashion images from the 20th century.
