KT & G Sangsangmadang is set to introduce the English fashion photographer Norman Parkinson (1913-1990) as its sixth hero of the 20th century 'Masterpiece' series.
The exhibition of the English fashion photographer Norman Parkinson, ‘Timeless Style’ will take place at Busan Citizens Hall from February 15 to April 30, 2019.
Norman Parkinson is regarded as a photographer who transformed the British fashion magazine industry with his own style in the 1960s when American fashion magazines were setting the trends at the time. His flamboyant style of shooting, which took fashion out of the studio and into the fresh air and real world, captured a spirit of spontaneity that changed the way we look at clothes.
The title of the exhibition ‘Timeless Style’ originated from the idea that his photos still inspire modern artists even after 50 years. Approximately 150 photos will be exhibited in a fashion studio style exhibition room.
The exhibition will be categorized into Street Photos, Cover & Photo, the British Royal Family and Portraits. Studio photos displaying Parkinson’s artistic talent, fashion magazine photos from Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, and Queen, photos of celebrity fashion models, honorable photos of the Royal Family, celebrity musicians and actors, and portraits of artists will be on display.
KT&G SangSang-Madang, a culture & arts complex has introduced various foreign artists not well-known to Korean audiences through its 20th Century artist exhibitions.
