"LaChapelle's photos, as blinding as they are, have a penetrating force: macabre or bucolic, they can’t be dismissed as merely kitsch, at least not now. Our fantasies and derangements have risen to the surface, where LaChapelle was looking for them all along.”⠀

Staley-Wise Gallery is pleased to participate in "Four Decades: In Celebration of AIPAD", an online auction at Sotheby’s of 19th, 20th, and 21st century photographs from nearly 50 esteemed worldwide members of The Association of International Photography Art Dealers (AIPAD). ⠀

“Storytelling has always been essential for me ever since I was a kid; it was my way of making the world the way I wanted it to be,” writes Piel.⠀
⠀
Internationally acclaimed photographer Denis Piel started his career in the early 1980’s and 1990’s photographing portraits of celebrities, actors, writers, and artists for magazines including French, Italian, and American VOGUE, GQ, and Vanity Fair. After much success with his photography, Piel began exploring the world of film and founded Jupiter Films in 1985, a film production company that soon gained international success.⠀
⠀
Piel’s career has since culminated into the recent publication of 3 books, “Exposed”, “Filmscapes”, and “Platescapes”, all of which feature his distinct style of story telling.⠀
⠀
EXPOSED features Piel's various bodies of work, including his fashion photography and Facescapes, an ambitious 20 year long project dedicated to creating landscapes of faces, a body of work he hopes will reveal the commonality of the human condition. ⠀
⠀
FILMSCAPES explores Piel’s photographic process through his own eye. Specific photoshoots, selected by the photographer from his vast archive, are presented to highlight his method and distinctive cinematic style. ⠀
⠀
Piel’s preoccupation with food has found expression across many forms, from the evolving photographic series PLATESCAPES to Les Jardins du Château de Padiès, the permaculture garden and farm run by his family.⠀

Today, Staley-Wise Gallery celebrates 39 years!⠀🎂
⠀
On December 5 in 1981, Etheleen Staley and Taki Wise opened Staley-Wise Gallery with an inaugural exhibition of Horst P. Horst photographs. The exhibition, titled “Shadow and Light,” was held at the gallery’s original location at 111 Wooster Street in Soho, New York. (Swipe on to view images from the exhibition.)⠀
⠀
Horst began working for VOGUE in 1932, dividing his time between Paris and New York until the outbreak of World War II, during which he served in the United States Army. Over the course of sixty years Horst photographed fashion, interiors, and every artistic, political, and social figure of note. His work has been the subject of numerous articles, books, and documentary films and solo exhibitions of his work have opened at the International Center of Photography in New York, the Louvre in Paris, The National Portrait Gallery in London, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and most recently at the Victoria & Albert Museum London in 2014.⠀

"I don’t believe in a photograph until I make a print. It doesn’t exist for me. It’s just like thin air. I’ve always thought of photography as an object. It’s not electronic information, it’s an object.⠀
⠀
It takes guts to make a print. You know you have to convince yourself that this is you, that you’ve made this and that you’re putting your name on it, and you also have to believe that maybe somebody else either can appreciate the work you’ve done or can appreciate the fact that this is you. There’s nothing else to hide behind.” - Kurt Markus, 2020⠀

Our Kurt Markus exhibition titled “A Life in Photography” is now open, and will run through January 16, 2021.⠀

"This was for Mirabella magazine. I’m from Montana and when I was growing up I was fascinated by the South and people from there, even though I could only read about it in literature. My wife Maria worked round the clock to find local people in Savannah who would be in the photographs and Polly Hamilton did a remarkable job styling a wide variety of body types and ages of our “non-models”. In fashion, black models were also often styled by hair stylists who had no experience with “non-white” hair, so we were also grateful to the hair stylist Edris Nicholls who made our subjects feel comfortable and beautiful. We shot in an old industrial building with natural light. Everything came together so beautifully - the fashion was right, the subjects were excited to be photographed and hardly needed coaching, and the whole shoot had a certain truth and spirit that I think shows in the pictures." - Kurt Markus, 2020⠀

We are sad to announce the death of renowned photographer William Helburn.⠀
⠀
A contemporary of Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, Francesco Scavullo and Lillian Bassman, William Helburn was at the top of his profession from the early 1950s through the 1960s, with bylined covers and editorial images in the pages of Harper’s Bazaar, LIFE, McCall’s and many other magazines. Helburn also worked extensively in advertising, contributing memorable pictures to campaigns designed by such legendary art directors as Gene Federico, Robert Gage, Helmut Krone and George Lois.⠀
⠀
Helburn entered the fashion world in 1947, shooting neophyte models like Grace Kelly and Tippi Hedren while studying graphic design with legendary art director Alexey Brodovitch. Success followed soon after for Helburn, along with a rich social life that included many of the most famous fashion models and celebrities of his era along with frequent turns on the road racing circuit, driving Ferraris at Sebring, Watkins Glen, Havana and Nassau.⠀
⠀
For decades, Helburn photographed and socialized with the world’s most beautiful women, including Dorian Leigh, Dovima, Suzy Parker, Jean Shrimpton, Barbara Mullen, Angela Howard, Jean Patchett, Lauren Hutton and Sharon Tate. Helburn became a successful director of TV commercials in the early 1980s. He left the industry a decade later to raise his children. ⠀

Priscilla Rattazzi was guided by local legend Yermo Walsh through the national monuments in southwest Utah which are featured in her current exhibition at Staley-Wise Gallery.⠀ ⠀ In the video above, Priscilla and Yermo reflect on their adventures together and the future of this land.⠀ ⠀ Priscilla Rattazzi’s “Hoodooland” exhibition can be seen at the gallery or online ‪until November 7, 2020‬.⠀ ⠀ You can make an appointment to visit through our website at the link in our bio or by calling or emailing the gallery.⠀ ⠀ We look forward to seeing you here!⠀ ⠀ #staleywise #priscillarattazzi #hoodoland #photography #photograph #landscape #utah #exhibition #photo #art #fineart #soho #nyc

You can meet photographer Priscilla Rattazzi and see her new exhibition “Hoodooland” next Thursday, September 17 between 11:00 am and 7:00 pm at Staley-Wise Gallery!⠀ ⠀ We’ll observe social distancing requirements at the gallery and you’ll need to make an appointment through our website at the link in our bio or by calling or emailing the gallery.⠀ ⠀ Priscilla Rattazzi first visited southwest Utah ten years ago, where she explored and photographed the majestic and barren landscapes near Lake Powell and the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. ⠀ ⠀ In late 2017, the current administration ordered approximately 2,000,000 protected acres in Utah be made available for resource extraction. Nearly 1,000,000 acres would be removed from the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument alone. Together, this is the largest rollback of public lands protection in United States history. Outraged but motivated by this announcement, Rattazzi began to document this remarkable landscape in earnest.⠀ ⠀ Rattazzi was particularly interested in photographing the unique mushroom-shaped columns of weathered rock indigenous to the area known as “hoodoos.” Borrowing their name from folk witchcraft brought to the Americas by enslaved Africans, these improbably balanced structures appear to be conjured by magic but are in fact formed by layers of soft rock which are eroded over time, leaving a “cap” of hard rock at their pinnacle.⠀ ⠀ “I flew back to Utah with a new camera, took very long and sometimes dangerous hikes, discovered more hoodoos, fell in love with them, and kept shooting. Then, I jokingly decided that many of these crazy rock formations looked like an army of mystical creatures and middle fingers sending a pointed message to Washington,” Rattazzi observed.⠀ ⠀ A portion of the proceeds from the exhibition sales will be donated to the Grand Staircase Escalante Partners, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization founded in 2004 which supports the conservation of the Monument and rel
