Walter Pfeiffer. In Good Company

In Good Company is the first institutional survey in Italia dedicated to Walter Pfeiffer, an artist whose prolific and pioneering work has redefined the codes of photography. With more than one hundred photos in colour and black-and-white, taken from the early 1970s to the present day, the exhibition intertwines Pfeiffer’s most iconic series with previously unseen images, in a non-hierarchical journey that highlights Pfeiffer’s unique contribution to art, photography, and fashion. In Good Company traces Pfeiffer’s polyphonic trajectory, which embraces all genres of art history - especially nude, portrait, landscape, and still life - with an approach that combines formalism, chromatic force, and sensuality. Repeatedly breaking new ground, Pfeiffer’s practice has systematically ventured into uncharted territory: from his frank portrayals of queer identities and sexuality to his unprecedented reinvention of high fashion imagery through irony, playfulness, and imperfection.
