From Vera to Veruschka: The Unseen Photographs by Johnny Moncada

A "bouquet" exhibition at Somerset House, showing photographs of Veruschka by Italian photographer Johnny Moncada, from the website:
Curated by Moncada’s daughter Valentina Moncada and creative director Antonio Monfreda, From Vera to Veruschka: The Unseen Photographs by Johnny Moncada will feature over 20 works, both in black and white and colour, and a video installation which takes the viewer on a behind the scenes journey through the dark room to the dolce vita locations.  

There is a short video as a complement of the exposition.


 


It is shown in a small space, bared and minimal, but it works well, except that the brightness from the outside brings all the reflections inside which for photography exhibits is a real problem, and it makes the visit kind of uncomfortable, and even worse for photographs and documenting the exposition.




There s little information in form of panels, partly because the exhibition is a complement to the book recently published by Rizzoli.
