It arrives to a very different world. Published into a post-supermodel, post-ironic culture, the new edition will find a new generation of readers, who may well be inured to Newton’s original provocation.

Biography

It’s a long process. Something no one knows about is that I do all of my work in writing first. I always carry around a little notebook in which I can jot down the minutest details concerning photos that I’ll take some other time. I can’t draw. So, I make notes on props, lighting, the compositional parts of my picture.

Helmut by Helmut Newton (1987) Also, in 2003, a few months before his death, Newton along with his wife June established the Helmut Newton Foundation in Berlin.
