Sarah Moon: About Colour, Michael Hoppen Gallery, London

Aesthetica Magazine, February 25, 2014

About Colour follows Sarah Moon’s major exhibition last year Alchimies at Muséum National D’Histoire Naturelle, Paris. Running until 5 April at the Michael Hoppen Gallery, this show presents pieces she has never displayed to the public before. Featuring works old and new, the exhibition highlights the artist’s outstanding ability to shoot fantastical images in colour.

 

Moon’s career in photography spans nearly three decades. Over this period she ha exhibited in Europe, Japan and the USA. Model turned photographer, Moon successfully captured the demise of the swinging sixties and the rise of punk through her photography. She became well known for her personalised commercial and editorial work in the fashion industry during the early 1970’s.
