Helmut Newton and Giampaolo Sgura

Transgressive German photographer Helmut Newton, established a prolific body of work in his signature voyeuristic style which changed the landscape of 20th-century fashion photography. Much of his work stemmed from the New Objectivity movement born in the hedonistic Weimar Republic of the photographer’s youth. Bergström Over Paris shot in 1967 is typical of the photographer’s work, and was recreated by photographer Giampaolo Sgura. Sgura photographed model, Anna de Rijk undressed apart from her stockings and Louboutins, perched over the Parisian skyline for Antidote Magazine‘s Shoe Issue in 2011.
