The Fondazione Sozzani presents the exhibition Hyperillustrations by François Berthoud in collaboration with Bulgari. Four decades of fashion told with the distinctive stroke of one of the most emblematic contemporary fashion illustrators, an anthological exhibition of more than one hundred works from the early Eighties to 2022.
Berthoud suggests stories. As scripts without words, some of his portraits possess such intensity that they leap off the page, as if animated by their own will.
“Moving beyond ‘Fashion Illustration’, Berthoud’s drawings and prints are rhetorical erotic assemblages. The experimentation with materials, and ready-made aesthetics are the foundation of his graphic works and best defined as “Hyper-illustrations. Perhaps with his mediation, François Berthoud takes fashion to its artistic and cultural extremes."– wrote Chris Dercon, Gran Palais Director, in an essay published on his work.
