Can Love Be A Photograph. - 40 years of Inez & Vinoodh

Kunstmuseum Den Haag has invited internationally renowned photography duo Inez van Lamsweerde (NL, 1963) and Vinoodh Matadin (NL, 1961) to reflect on 40 years of artistic partnership in a major retrospective exhibition.  
 

Inez and Vinoodh have a seemingly endless capacity to explore new visual territories. In the early 1990s they were among the first practitioners to show the possibilities of digital-imaging technology as a creative and meaningful medium. They developed a signature style of visual seduction paired with provocative narratives, which infused new ideas into photography. 
 
Inez and Vinoodh are operating in both the art world and the fashion world simultaneously. Since the early 1990s, they have created groundbreaking editorials for such publications as Vogue, V Magazine, Visionaire, The New York Times Magazine, and W Magazine. Their innovative approach is also seen in campaigns and fashion films for houses including Balenciaga, Balmain, Calvin Klein, Chanel, Dior, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Miu Miu, Valentino, and Yohji Yamamoto. Inez and Vinoodh have also expanded into the world of film and video, directing groundbreaking music videos for artists such as Lady Gaga, Bjork, Rihanna, Kanye West, and Paul McCartney.
