Bettina Rheims - Naked War

XIPPAS
The Xippas gallery is delighted to present Bettina Rheims’ latest photographic project, “Naked War”. Carried out in 2017 in collaboration with the writer and novelist Serge Bramly, it is the result of the meeting between the photographer and the Femen activists.
The portraits of the Femen extend the research on the construction and representation of femininity which the artist has been leading for over 35 years, and which has taken a clearly political turn since her series “Détenues” (2014). In this context, Bettina Rheims looks towards the feminist movement, where she finds affinities intrinsic to her work.
