A Lady of Style – Lady Ostapeck’s American Costumes and Portraits

07.02.2012 10:00 - 12.02.2012 18:00

18 March 2011 – March 2012

The mysterious name ‘Lady Ostapeck’ hides an American portrait photographer who was born in New York in 1918. Lady Ostapeck has used her bellows camera from the early 20th century, which she found at a jumble sale, for taking portraits wherein history, the present, and fantasy become intertwined. A lover of the history of fashion, Lady Ostapeck has amassed a sizeable collection of historic costumes and textiles, which she uses in her skilfully created portraits.
