Charles Fréger
EMPIRE The work of French photographer Charles Fréger (*1975) is considered groundbreaking in the complex genre of contemporary portraiture. In extensive series he portrays individual members of social groups – be it sports clubs, army corps or professional guilds – who demonstrate their affiliation to the specific collective through external signs such as uniforms, headdress, make-up, posture or even their body shape (in the case of Sumowrestlers or Foreign Legionaires).

Lillian Bassman & Paul Himmel
The work of Lillian Bassman (*1917) exudes a captivating elegance and a sure sense of style. As longstanding art director for Harper’s Bazaar, she shaped both the changing style of the magazine’s layout and the fashion photography of the 1940s to 60s. In the 1950s she introduced a new feminine ideal – long-limbed and swan-necked – into her atmospherically charged scenes. By experimenting with various photographic exposures and darkroom techniques, she lent her black-and-white photographs a unique, almost painterly quality.
