MARIO TESTINO - Todo o Nada - 21.09.2010-09.01.2011 - Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid

Lancôme partner of Mario Testino exhibition

Both timeless and resolutely anchored in his era, Mario Testino is considered one of the greatest photographers of our time. An aesthete with a multi-faceted approach, his work is an ode to femininity, a beautiful dualistic portrayal of women combining the purest feminine delicacy with the most daring boldness.

Through their grace and emotion, their sophistication and light, his images exude a truly unique signature, bearing witness to Mario Testino’s utterly unique, contemporary vision of beauty.

In Todo o Nada, a sublime exhibition supported by Lancôme, Mario Testino unveils more than 50 images shot between 1995 and today, some of which previously unseen. Alongside the artist Patrick Kinmonth, he stages the space, presenting his portraits as true masterpieces. Enhancing the exceptional beauty of iconic women, Mario Testino arranges the exhibition as a progression, following a sensual undressing to finally unveil a sublimely chic, naked form. Tributes both to the exquisite heights of fashion as well as to total nudity, his images capture stolen moments, celebrating women at their most authentic and most sensual.

Mario Testino’s long term partner and symbol of elegance and femininity à la française, Lancôme, is the exclusive supporter of this exhibition. Featuring images of Kate Winslet and Daria Werbowy, this exhibition will reveal the brand’s emblematic ambassadresses as they have never been seen before.
