Le Petit Voyeur is an independent publisher from Copenhagen, dedicated to showcase and promote an eclectic mix of talented and creative visual artists worldwide. As the photographer noted prior to the show’s opening June 2, the enormous size and full bleed from corner to corner means there are no distractions. Jean Pigozzi, a photographer, art collector, and international businessman, was previously featured at the Helmut Newton Foundation with his portraits and selfportraits in the “Paparazzi” group exhibition in 2008. But Helmut was born on the 31 st of October and I on the 30 th, which means we’re both Scorpios with sex in our heads all the time, and also an untiring energy to work all the time.Mario Testino Undressed – In this revealing publication, Mario Testino presents a 50-part series exploring the intersection of art, anatomy, fashion, and eroticism. Testino, much like Newton before him, offers an empowering perspective on the body, and where Newton established a confident image of femininity, Testino challenges masculine paradigms. larger-than-life images are affixed directly to the walls in three of the foundation’s exhibition halls, reaching into the corners of the room and up to the ceiling.

His solo exhibitions have shown in museums and galleries worldwide, including the National Portrait Gallery, London, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Both approached the body as a point of fascination, while also enjoying phenomenally successful careers as fashion photographers. Over the past 90 years, the family has built its fine reputation on the values of quality, style, and attention to detail.It’s a prevailing interest Testino said he shares with Helmut Newton, an inspiration for Testino “since Mario Testino became Mario Testino. We see many intimate moments, some caught candidly, some consciously orchestrated, such as a young man shaving a woman’s upper pubic hair in a luxurious bathroom. The 50 featured photographs center on the naked body, alternately exploring and pushing the traditions and boundaries between sex, gender identity, and fashion . The main focus is on the featured artists works and their craftsmanship across genres, techniques and choice of medium, ranging widely from nude photography to amazing street art.

The viewer is almost compelled to immerse his or herself in the images, turning from “a voyeur into a participant. This presentation form is unique to both Testino’s work as well as the exhibition history of the Helmut Newton Foundation, filling the rooms with bodies and emotions to create an imposing human landscape. The images are accompanied by an introduction from curator Matthias Harder, a candid conversation piece with Carine Roitfeld, as well as an essay from psychiatrist and psychologist Manfred Spitzer who offers a neuroscientific perspective on our visual perception of bodies and beauty. We know that many of you worry about the environmental impact of travel and are looking for ways of expanding horizons in ways that do minimal harm - and may even bring benefits. Not so at Ten Towers – perhaps surprisingly, as peddlers of smut, we are genuinely mortified by the idea of looking at ourselves a la nu.Some of the data that are collected include the number of visitors, their source, and the pages they visit anonymously. Carine Roitfeld is an influentual fashion journalist, former editor-in-chief of French Vogue, and founder of CR Fashion Book. Testino’s incalculable influence in fashion has led to him lensing some of the most established faces, brands, (and in this case, bodies), in the world ranging from Kate Moss to that controversial Gucci ad from the 90s with the man shaving a woman’s public hair into the double G logo. Testino's lineup ranges from supermodel protagonists, such as Kate Moss and Amber Valletta, to anonymous, androgynous men; from individual portraits to group photos.

By blurring boundaries between fashion, eroticism and art, Mario Testino has unravelled the politics and symbolism of the body throughout his work. A book on the iconic fashion photographer, titled "Mario Testino Undressed", will be published by Taschen to accompany the exhibition. Coinciding with an exhibition at the Helmut Newton Foundation in Berlin, these works center on the naked body, blurring the line between public and private personas as well as laying Testino’s archive bare with a number of previously unseen photographs. Suffused with a sultry 70s-era vibe, Purienne’s photos have been a key part of many ad campaigns from Vogue to Playboy.Our Trips are suitable for both solo travelers, couples and friends who want to explore the world together.
