The exhibition ‘A Different Vision on Fashion Photography’ at Kunsthal Rotterdam was an ode to Lindbergh’s multi-faceted oeuvre from 1978 to the present day. His oeuvre is characterised by portraits that radiate a certain lack of inhibition and physical grace. Lindbergh’s visual idiom is influenced by the language of film and by playing with the type of the strong, self-willed woman, from the femme fatale to the heroine, but also the female dancer and the actress. His timeless images redefine the norms of beauty. He introduced a new realism into photography. Lindbergh’s pure black-and-white photographs have determined the course of fashion photography since the 1980s. Peter Lindbergh is today regarded as one of the most influential fashion photographers of the past forty years.
