Sarah Moon's Poetic Photography at Armani/Silos in Milan
The exhibition 'From one season to another' at Armani/Silos in Milan presents a comprehensive survey of Sarah Moon's work from the 1970s to today. The show, curated by the artist herself, eschews chronological or thematic organization in favor of poetic and aesthetic juxtapositions. Alongside her abstract fashion photographs for Yamamoto and Miyake, Moon includes landscapes and floral images that evoke suspended time. Notably, no photographs made for Armani are displayed. The exhibition features a soundtrack that underscores the evanescent quality of the work. A short film on the Jardin des Plantes in Paris, set to Bach's music, depicts animals in a coercive environment. The show marks 50 years of Moon's career, which began in 1968 after she transitioned from modeling to photography. Her early work included socially conscious campaigns for Biba and Cacharel on the revolutionary magazine Nova. Concurrently, the Fondazione Sozzani hosts 'Sarah Moon, Time at Work,' featuring 90 works from 1995 to 2018, accompanied by a documentary and a short film.
