A Personal View on High Fashion & Street Style: Photographs from the Nicola Erni Collection, 1930s to Now
This special exhibition includes nearly 300 photographs from the Nicola Erni Collection and marks the first time this world-renowned, Switzerland-based collection is on view to the public. The exhibition reveals two genres of photography, including the posed, stylized world of fashion photography, as well as the candid, spontaneous realm of street photography, and the ways they have influenced each other. Spanning over 90 years and as many artists, the exhibition includes iconic photographers of the 20th century like Irving Penn, Richard Avedon and Bill Cunningham, and major photographers of today, such as The Sartorialist, Tyler Mitchell and Nadine Ijewere.
