Now and Then is a retrospective book of the oeuvre of photographer Sarah Moon . After working in Paris as a model for several years, Sarah Moon took up photography in 1968. In these years, she adopted the artist’s name Sarah Moon. Her first campaign pictures for the Cacharel fashion label were followed by innumerable advertising photographs, among others for Dior, Chanel, Comme des Garçons and Issey Miyake, as well as fashion features for magazines. She was the first woman to photograph for the prestigious Pirelli calendar. Among her most recent works are pictures and a short film for Dior Homme.

Yet Sarah Moon is much more than a fashion photographer. She films shorts and documentaries (among others about her close friend Henri Cartier-Bresson and Lillian Bassman) as well as the feature film Mississippi One. In this way over decades she has developed an individual artistic photographical and filmic oeuvre free of commissioned works.

Her pictures in soft focus black-and-white or pale colors lure the viewer into a realm of dreams, of myths and fairytales; they also reflect the paradisiacal: unknown landscapes, enchanted cities. Her fashion shots, still lives and portraits seem like views into timelessness. In her series − and also in the exhibition in Hamburg − she herself combines portraits, still lives of flowers, and views of the city and the countryside with one another.
