Richard Heeps
Burlesque Series, Catherine D'Lish in Champagne Coupe I, Tease-O-Rama, Hollywood

2003

About the Item

Catherine D'Lish in Champagne Coupe, Richard Heeps photograph taken at the American Hollywood Burlesque event Tease-O-Rama. Richard Heeps became well-known for his Burlesque Photography after he spent 2003 capturing performances in Britain & America. He would spend a lot of time with his subjects on a number of occasions, building close relationships with them resulting in more intimate artworks. He began this prior to the cultural phenomenon of Burlesque, on the brink of the new movement which was a form of interpretation and innovation. His connection to it was sparked from his Rockabilly links built over the seven years he spent working towards his book, 'Man's Ruin' which was published in 2007. An edition of this work featured in the 2018-2019 exhibition Wemen at Nhow Hotel Milano. This artwork is a limited edition of 25, gloss photographic print, dry-mounted to aluminium, it is presented in a museum board white window mount and a choice of black or white box frame fitted with anti-reflective UV70% glass. It is signed and numbered on reverse and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. Handmade to order. This artwork is available in other sizes and pairs well with Richard Heeps' other artworks in our 1stdibs store. Richard Heeps’ seductive, highly saturated colours and sophisticated pictorial structures demonstrate a true love and empathy for his subject matter – be it cool, descriptive interiors, still life, portrait or landscape. His distinctive style pushes the limits of lens-based photography. He runs his own darkrooms in Cambridge (UK) where he makes his master prints. His work has been exhibited in Museums and Public Galleries around England and he has participated in Art Fairs around the world and his work is now part of many international collections.

'Thief' - Self Portrait by René Peña - Leading Contemporary Cuban Photographer
By Rene Peña
Located in Brooklyn, NY
René Peña (Rene de Jesus Pena Gonzalez) is a self-taught photographer born in Havana, Cuba in 1957. His photography is characterized by stark contrasts, between black and white, subject and background, subject and object. His work often focuses on the duality between human inability to escape institutionalization and human desire for individualism. His interest in contrast is also reflected in his place of residence: Peña currently inhabits the Cerro neighborhood of Cuba which is home to a mostly poor African-Caribbean population, despite having been an enclave of Havana's richest families in the 19th century. René Peña graduated from the Higher pedagogic Institute of Foreign Languages, University of Havana with a specialization in English in 1983. In the late 1980s he entered the national world of photography and since 1990 became leader of the new trends of Cuban photography...
