Herb Ritts

Christopher Reeve

If you are into classy, graphic-looking fashion photography, you should invest some time in visiting the Herb Ritts exhibition at Fotografiska. *In Full Light* is his retrospective exhibition that sees celebrities, advertising and portraits all mixed together in photos that resemble vector art. We also get a hint of gay culture with questions about sex, body image and gender.

It is a fitting tribute to Ritts that pictures he made in the 1980s and 90s still feel so modern, 12 years after his death from AIDS in 2002.

*In Full Light* at Fotografiska is on display until February
