Danger and decadence-Hardcover, 245 x 325 mm
The collection Sex & Landscapes brings together a rich selection from Helmut Newtons little-known landscape and travel photographs, as well as unseen tougher sex pictures, described by Philippe Garner of de Pury & Luxembourg as Helmuts world of dark, brooding seas, baroque statuary, crashing waves, a long desert highway under threatening skies, a Berlin park at dusk, enigmatic apartment buildings at night, the Rhine seen from the air, the shadows of airplanes, all this interwoven with hard and voyeuristic sexual imagery, plus a touch of his high style and glamour. The books publication coincides with the exhibition of Sex and Landscapes, which will open on June 3 at the inauguration of the Helmut Newton Foundation in Berlin.
