The world of Helmut Newton is extremely complex and diverse. Considered shocking and provocative back in the sixties, he now enjoys the reputation of a photographer who was able to imagine and visualize women exactly as they are today at the dawn of the new millennium: women who take the lead rather than follow it; women who enjoy the resplendence and vitality of their bodies, bodies over which they themselves have sole command; women who are both responsible and willing.
