A Photograph: June Newton

I don't know so much about the photograph, is not my favourite type of art but recently i read something about a woman photographer. Her name is June Newton or Alice Spring widow of Helmut Newton another famous photographer, he teach to her the basic thechniques.  She started in the photograph she called Alice Springs  this happens in  1970 when Helmut had a disease, but she start in the photograph with this event. 13 years later Helmut died in a car crash before start a big photograph production, June continous his work in this last time.
She consolidates in the protraist offering a personal style. A lot of people was in her workshop, pleople from fashion word, famous writer like Alberto Moravia, artist like Joseph Beuys, the prominent people.
  The firts Photograph beside the principal text is part of fashion produccion at 1997 from the Depeche Mode magazine. I like because is casual and funnny, looks like a race between friends. June agreed the fashion topic with the ordinary situation but in the line of arts because is fresh isn't like pose and the viewer can participe in the scene, she can capture the charisma of the models its feel like a game.
The last photograph is from Depeche Mode Magazine too at the year 1971. Personaly i like because the model expresses a shameless actitude, her eyes are challenging and a give a sensation that we bother. In both Photograph the girls impose their character, they are the center of the action but they aren't alone their action are supplemented with the viewer participate. Finally one might think it was difficult for June to both compete with her husband as an artist but despite June Newton is a fashion photographer her style had a intimacy more than Helmut. At the same time June's work wasted personality and is diferent depend of the case or the model, sha capture the essence of the soul of her model all in her bodies expresses something to supplemented the action.
