Nudes by Sophie Delaporte - Opening Sept. 22 at Sous Les Etoiles



Inspired by high fashion (and her career as a British fashion photographer), Sophie Delaporte claims that with her new series Nudes she has been able to overcome the limitations offered by fashion photography. Her photography has alway brought about a spirit of vivacity and intuition which is now translated with a new energy into graphic simplicity. Accessories such as paper, fabric, and furniture, embellish the pose of the model to create a dramatic and playful elasticity of movement. With her own colors, her way of staging, and the joy of her imagery, Delaporte lets these fashion butterflies take flight - sans clothing.

The show opens at Sous Les Etoiles Gallery in New York on September 22nd from 6:00-9:00 PM. The gallery is located at 560 Broadway Suite 205. A catalog will be released with a foreword by Vicki Goldberg, journalist and critic, who has overseen photography’s rise in contemporary art over the past 25 years.
