About

In the 1970s, the photographer Chris Von Wangenheim radically challenged the public taste with high fashion photographs capturing the zeitgeist and cultural changes of the era. His images have remained largely unseen since his tragic death in 1981 and are shown for the first time 40 years later. Curated to feature some of his most recurring themes such as violence, sex, glamour and punk, the exhibition includes photos shot between 1976 and 1979 which were some of the most talked-about avant-garde images of the time.
