The exhibition PENN & FASHION presents the career of Irving Penn (1917– 2009) through the lens of fashion. One of the most influential photographers of the twentieth century, Penn revolutionised fashion photography and influenced entire generations of photographers. His collaboration with Vogue magazine, which spanned close to sixty years, allowed him to pursue a unique body of work that defied convention and often went far beyond fashion itself. From his iconic images of the 1950s to his colour work of the 2000s, his work is that of an artist who was always ahead of his time.
