Vincent Peters' 'Timeless Time' Exhibition Opens in Rome
Vincent Peters' exhibition 'Timeless Time' opened at Palazzo Bonaparte in Rome, following its success in Milan. The show, organized by Arthemisia, features the German-born photographer's black-and-white portraits of celebrities and fashion figures, emphasizing beauty without pretense. Peters, who worked in New York since the 1990s and joined Mario Testino's agency in 1999, treats each image as a film scene, prioritizing emotional impact over documentation. The exhibition includes an immersive hall of mirrors and highlights influences from Caravaggio and Bernini. Notable works include a full-length portrait of Berthany Robbins with sculptural drapery and 'Laetitia Casta II,' which plays on sacred and profane themes. The show runs at Palazzo Bonaparte, curated to create a timeless, dreamlike atmosphere.
