La galerie Xippas est heureuse de présenter une exposition de l’iconique photographe parisienne Bettina Rheims, pour la première fois dans une galerie en Suisse. Au centre du travail de Bettina Rheims, des portraits de femmes, de stars, une photographie qui se veut non conventionnelle pour une iconographie du corps particulière. Les photographies présentées à la Galerie Xippas ont été réalisées entre 1994 et 2013, représentant un large pannel de la carrière de l’artiste. Des portraits de femmes, d’icônes, manipulées et sublimées à la fois par les clichés de Bettina Rheims. More information:  HERE
