The Secret Life of Shadows: Deborah Turbeville at Ralph Pucci, NYC




Currently at the Ralph Pucci showroom, photographer Deborah Turbeville's soft and sexy series, SILENT FILM, stands on display in full elegance and austerity.

the photographs, all taken using a digital camera, portray the telltale weathered and antique elements which have garnered Turbeville's reputation in fashion photography
as the "Anti-Newton".
Some photos reveal a cast of greek and roman statues in the Versailles gardens and estate, much in the same vein as her portfolio of note, Unseen Versailles. Other works represent pastiches of many photographs combined into one total work, which illustrate the narrative of the Carnival at Venice or Paris on a rainy day, for example.
