So this new of German origin gallery does it again,- bringing in the heavy guns of photography to the London scene. This time it is American Cindy Sherman (born January 19, 1954, New Jersey) a name that is hard to escape if you take a route through the history of photography.
Sherman preferes to work all alone in her studio putting herself in front of the camera as well as doing the photographing. She often wears such heavy make-up and costumes that it is hard to recognize her even though you know it is her.
She is especially known for her work “Complete Untitled Film Stills”, 1977-1980, a great peace of work of 69 photographs where she portraits herself in black and white and in a mixture of the worlds of classic B movies and film noir.
