All auctions / Photographs / Paul Huf (1924 -2002) - Platenhoes voor Philips phonografische industrie (1954)
This is an iconic Dutch advertisement photograph from the 1940s. It is an advertising photo by photographer Paul Huf Jr. for the plate cover of Philips phonographic industry (1954) Photographer: Paul Huf Paul Huf (1924 - 2002) Title: Plate cover for Philips phonographic industry (1954) Size: 34 x 24 cm Original: the original photo was released in the 1950s; this beautiful edition is from 1996. Condition: Very good Technique: C-print / digital print Authentic: Yes, see stamp on the back by Groninger Museum Edition: This photo was issued by the Groninger Museum in 1996, around which Paul Huf (and Dick Bruna) organized an exhibition titled 'The Smell of Success'. "The Smell of Success" was a special, large-scale exhibition at the Groninger Museum in 1996 (from June 29 to September 1). The exhibition and the accompanying publications revolved around the unique combination of two Dutch icons: photographer Paul Huf and designer/illustrator Dick Bruna. The exhibition showcased the cross-pollination between Paul Huf’s commercial/modern photography and Dick Bruna’s minimalist graphic design (known for Nijntje). Both had, in the preceding decades, left a huge imprint on Dutch visual culture (as Huf did with his iconic album covers, Grolsch campaigns, Philips, KLM, Magriet, Avenue, King Peppermint and Playboy). Historical & Artistic Context - Photographer: Photographed by the legendary Dutch photographer Paul Huf Jr. - Client: Created as advertising and fashion photography for the innovative magazine Romance. - People in the photo The two men in the composition are the famous Dutch choreographer and dancer Hans van Manen and dancer Gérard le Maître. Their dynamic ballet and dance poses break with the traditional, static fashion pose of that era. The four posing women are the then-known models Margereth, Vicka, Evelyn and Rita. Here are 20 important international and Dutch examples, influences and related artists of Paul Huf: Irving Penn Richard Avedon Edward Steichen Cecil Beaton Horst P. Horst George Hoyningen-Huene Louise Dahl-Wolfe Man Ray Willy Maywald Henri Cartier-Bresson Jacques Henri Lartigue Ad Windig Maria Austria Carel Willink Helmut Newton Guy Bourdin David Bailey Bert Stern Lord Snowdon (Antony Armstrong-Jones) Norman Parkinso
