The second part of the summer exhibition is devoted to an album assembled by Helmut Newton in 1999 for collector Gert Elfering, now in the Nicola Erni Collection. After having been presented at her collection spaces in Switzerland, the album is now on view in Berlin for the first time. Helmut Newton's One-off Album comprises 103 small-format original prints in black-and-white and color, in various dimensions. Selected by Newton and Elfering, the prints were mounted on card stock and annotated by hand with a title or anecdote. The mounted photographs were not bound at the time; they have since been individually framed and can now be viewed side by side. The selection includes iconic fashion photographs as well as never-before-exhibited working shots taken behind the scenes, Polaroids, and advertising images.
To accompany the exhibition and in partnership with the Nicola Erni Collection, Phaidon has published Helmut Newton: One-off, with an introduction by Philippe Garner, an interview between Gert Elfering and Matthias Harder, and a collector’s statement by Nicola Erni. Now available worldwide.
