A Tim Walker Exhibition Is Coming To The V&A

Following the incredible success of the Dior exhibition, this September the V&A opens Tim Walker: Wonderful Things, the third solo show of British fashion photographer and long-time Voguecollaborator, Tim Walker.

The Knightsbridge institution will pay tribute to his contribution to image-making through his wondrous imagination. Collaborators, from the set designers, stylists, make-up artists and models on his first Vogue shoot at the age of 25, to those on the 2018 Pirelli calendar in collaboration with Vogueeditor-in-chief Edward Enninful, will also be explored – including 10 brand new photographic projects, too.


“The beautiful and eclectic objects housed in the V&A have influenced Tim since the start of his career,” Susanna Brown, curator of Tim Walker: Wonderful Things at the V&A, told Vogue exclusively. “He has spent months exploring our collection and delving deep into the museum stores to gain inspiration for his new pictures, which will form the heart of the exhibition. It will celebrate the contributions of his many talented collaborators and muses too. This is a project we've been talking about for several years, and it's going to be a spectacular show.”

Though exact details of the works that will go on display are not known, British art director and collaborator Shona Heath will design the space to house the photographs, films, sets and installations. Expect some extraordinary viewing come September 2019. Tim Walker: Wonderful Things exhibition runs from September 21 until March 8 2020. Tickets go on sale June 13th 2019.
