In honor of Fifty One Gallery’s 10 year anniversary, it has decided to celebrate with an overview of the oeuvre of one its most famous artists, Serge Gainsbourg (1928 – 1991). The exhibition “…offers a mélange of portraits, as well as rare and eccentric images by artists such as William Klein, JL Sieff, Tony Frank, Helmut Newton, Pierre Terrasson, Claude Gassian, Guy Albrecht , Patrick de Spiegelaere, Bert Stern , Xavier Martin, and Alain Trellu amongst others. In addition to the photographs, a collection of cult objects (books, cd’s, magazines, etc) will contribute to the unusual presentation that represents a continuously growing admiration and love for an artist who gained little recognition at the beginning of his career despite the masterpieces he created – songs including “La Javanaise”, “Initials B.B.”, “la Chanson de Prévert” or “Doctor Jeckyll and Mister Hyde”.
The show is on display now through July 31st.
