Octogenarian French photographer and filmmaker Sarah Moon shows 30 years of work at Fotografiska New York – spanning fashion and fantasy, mystery and the macabre, it’s dark, painterly and compe...

produced over the last 30 years, the exhibition showcases both Moon’s literary approach to working and her ability create dreamlike visuals, regardless of their destination and medium.‘Sarah Moon creates her own timeless, unique visual language,’ says Amanda Hajjar, director of exhibitions at Fotografiska New York.

‘She expands outside straight fashion photography to something more conceptual, but we’re still able to recognise it as fashion focused. This unexpectedness keeps us interested and surprised.’The deep colour tones, abstract shapes and melancholic mood of Moon’s images produce a rich storybook-like quality in her work.

‘Even the most glamorous fashion works of her oeuvre express a darkness, treading a line of fantasy and nightmare,’ Hajjar explains. ‘The painterly quality to the photographs is a device to highlight this ethereal mystery of the work. This draws viewers into Moon’s world and you’re visually captivated by the images in front of you.’ §

Not exactly a principled move. Good lord, a police 'boss' whatever that particular title means, saying it is the victims fault? So glad to know our mentality towards women being attacked has moved so drastically in the past 50 years.
