Portraits of women. A collection of photographs


sintesi del comunicato stampa

The exhibition 'Portraits of women' is a collection of photographs by three artists: Man Ray, Jorge Martins and Juliao Sarmento. The remarkable set of photographs The Fifty Faces of Juliet by Man Ray (1890-1976) from the Fondazione Marconi collection, Milan is on show. They are portraits of Juliet Browner (1911-1991), the artist's wife, photographed between 1941 and 1955. Man Ray's photography is outstanding due to the discovery of new photographic processes and to his subversion of traditional techniques. Two Portuguese artists emerge in dialogue with Man Ray, Jorge Martins and Juliao Sarmento. This dialogue brings to the public little known or totally unknown photographs by two important contemporary artists who, like Man Ray, have always photographed in parallel with other artistic practices. They are also portraits of women which surprise and elucidate creative indagations. Jorge Martins never thought of showing the photographs, 20 intimate female records taken between 1964 and 1973 in Paris, which he called Eros cromatico. Juliao Sarmento displays 62 photographs of 31 women, taken over a period of 42 years, a carefully chosen set by Sergio Mah from among numerous negatives. Mostly unpublished, the photographs, portraits of women, were taken from the late 60s to today. Opening January 27th, 18.30 pm.
