Heimat. A Sense of Belonging is the name of the next Armani/Silos exhibition, entirely dedicated to Peter Lindbergh, who died on September 3, 2019. On the walls, a well-chosen series of published and unpublished works, elegant testimony to the sensitivity of the German photographer and his aesthetics recognizable at first glance. A fan of ageless glamour and uncompromising modernity, he redrew the contours of beauty by creating photographic series of rare realism, inspired by documentary photography and photojournalism, where the model often appears without make-up, totally unfiltered in front of the lens.
His most famous photos remain those of supermodels, which he has elevated to the rank of myth thanks to his black and white series. For the very first time, he brought together Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, Tatjana Patitz, Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington for the cover of the January 1990 edition of Vogue UK. The squadron will forever be associated with the era of superstar models that made the 90s and inspired George Michael for his Freedom! video, who chose to bring them together.
