Georges
Dambier , French, 1925-2011. One of the first fashion
photographers to take models out of the studio and into the streets,
Georges Dambier captured the most beautiful women of his time,
including Brigitte Bardot and Suzy Parker. Rejecting the standard
technique of capturing emotionless models, Dambier captured his
models looking ambivalent towards their clothing and the camera,
instead laughing, enjoying exotic locations, and riding in cars and
boats. In his 20 years of greatest productivity (1960-1980) he worked
at Elle magazine and started two significant publications, Twenty and
V.S.D.
