"Interior Personalities"
An Exhibition of Photography by Snowdon

Jude Law

Rachel Weisz

Please note - this exhibition has now closed

Known for the versatile and incisive nature of his work, Snowdon has chronicled some of the most prominent characters of our time. From October to November 2002 he is to show a selection of captivating photographs in an exhibition of his work entitled 'Interior Personalities'. The exhibition will take place at LINLEY, 60 Pimlico Road. For Snowdon, it is an apt return to Pimlico Road, the location of his first photographic studio in the 1950s.

'Interior Personalities' comprises over 30 cropped and intimate black and white photographs Film stars, writers, musicians, actors, intellectuals, artists, entrepreneurs and designers are gathered together as the subjects of his vision. In each case the lens looks through the eyes of the sitter and beyond, teasing out aspects of character and emotion in a guileful search for hidden identities. The postures of lives lived in the public gaze are dispelled as Snowdon captures what is often concealed - an interior moment.

Included in the exhibition will be photographs of Uma Thurman, David Bowie, Jude Law, Gianni Versace, Greta Scacchi, Rachel Weisz, Anthony Blunt, Lady Diana Mosley, Tom Cruise, Boy George and Dame Betty Boothroyd.

"Interior Personalities" is supported by Olympus, with whom Snowdon has held a long-standing relationship. "Unlike most camera manufacturers", Snowdon comments "Olympus take a great personal interest in professional photographers and I have always found them a pleasure to deal with". Graeme Chapman, Managing Director of Olympus, comments "Olympus has always been proud of our association and friendship with Lord Snowdon. It was natural that when this project was first mentioned, Olympus was the partner. As always, the whole concept utilises Lord Snowdon's creative genius to the full".
