The Bratislava City Gallery in cooperation with MILOSH LTD and Pavleye Art and Culture and presented at the premises of the Mirbach Palace an original exhibition concept devoted to the patron of contemporary art, Daphne Guinness.
The multimedia exhibition was a mosaic comprised of VIDEO and DIGITAL works on which Daphne has cooperated with the elites of world photography, such as Nick Knight, Steven Klein, David LaChapelle along with independent artists such as Indrani , Fashtons and Luca Pizzaroni to name a few.
“Daphne is the object of her own creativity, and her persona is her own artistic masterpiece,” said art theorist John Richardson in a monography, which chronologically maps the birth of the contemporary “Renaissance” icon from her childhood in Cadaques, where she grew up in the yard of Salvador Dalí to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where in 2011 she introduced the retrospective exhibition of her protégé – Alexander McQueen.
