DAVID LACHAPELLE | BALLARAT INTERNATIONAL FOTO BIENNALE

19 August – 17 September 2017

One of the most important photographers of our time!

The centrepiece of the 2017 Ballarat International Foto Biennale, David La Chapelle’s beautifully strong and vibrant images simultaneously create and critique 20th Century pop culture.

This is the first time David LaChapelle will exhibit in Australia. LaChapelle is known internationally for his exceptional talent in combining a unique hyper-realistic aesthetic with profound social messages. His work caught the eye of Andy Warhol who gave him his first job as a photographer for Interview Magazine.

Since then his striking images have graced the covers of Italian Vogue, French Vogue, Vanity Fair, GQ, Rolling Stone and i-D. He has also photographed some of
the most recognised faces on the planet – Madonna, Leonardo DiCaprio, Angelina Jolie, to name a few.

This exhibition is not to be missed – a must see for secondary art students!

SCHOOL GROUP STUDENT TICKET PRICE: $6 non-members / $5 for AEV Members
