"...And God Created Woman" at LAST Galerie, Zurich

Zurich: May 15 until September 30, 2010

Marilyn Monroe, Brigitte Bardot, Elizabeth Taylor, Sophia Loren, Audrey Hepburn and Catherine Deneuve are but a few of the leading ladies who created and epitomised the movie world of the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. In its current exhibition, „…And God Created Woman“, the Zurich gallery LAST presents a wide cross-section of the posters and press photographs that helped define them and their generation. Works of art in themselves, most are rarely seen and all were originally produced for promotional purposes rather than sale.

All exhibits are taken from the collection of gallery owner Martin Last. He began collecting as a boy in the early 1970s. In recent years his focus has been on the work of directors, poster artists and photographers whose work is widely recognised as being of artistic importance. Having always sought out the unusual, his collection is notable for the diversity of genres, periods, countries and poster formats represented. This is the first time that a significant part of the collection has been offered for sale since the gallery‘s „Movie Crazy I and II“ exhibitions in 2004.
