Ballet - Henry Leutwyler
After four years of collaboration with Peter Martins and the New York City Ballet, Henry Leutwyler was granted unprecedented backstage access to the Company during the winter of 2012. The resulting book, Ballet, reflects thirty years of his passion for the art form, realised in thirty days of photography. Leutwyler inhabited the shadows of the stage and became “invisible”, recording images of the dancers using nothing more than his 35mm Leica. He was able to explore the performers’ personal space, affording a more abstract portrait – a visual slice of their frenzied existence in an art form predicated on perfection. Ballet is an homage to the gritty universe from behind the curtain, and a complement to its ethereal beauty as viewed from the front row.

L'insensé Suisse ouvre ses pages à des photographes contemporains insensés
Après l'Insensé Japan, Pays-Bas, Espagne, États-Unis, Berlin et British, voici le tour de la Suisse d'être encensée par L'Insensé. Comme à son habitude, le magazine est de toute beauté, et à un prix raisonnable et abordable : 20 euros.
« La Suisse s'affiche comme un pays « neutre ». Cela ne signifie pas pour autant que ce petit pays situé au milieu de l'Europe se soit retiré du monde pour cultiver son « ailleurs ». Depuis toujours ses habitants ont ressenti une ardente obligation de curiosité vers le monde extérieur, à travers les livres, les films, la finance... et la photographie ! ».

Photobastei presents Henry Leutwyler, New York
The Photobastei proudly pays homage to Swiss-born, New York-based photographer Henry Leutwyler by showing his two highly acclaimed exhibitions Neverland Lost: A Portrait of Michael Jackson and Ballet: Photographs of the New York City Ballet, the first time they have been shown in Switzerland, or indeed in Europe.
Neverland Lost: A Portrait of Michael Jackson
Henry Leutwyler had only three days to go through thousands of Michael Jackson’s personal artefacts to photograph costumes, pictures, trophies, furniture and everyday objects belonging to the King of Pop – all before the whole lot was auctioned off.
It wasn’t enough time. Leutwyler travelled to Neverland Lost, Jackson’s ranch in California, returning to New York with the artefacts he needed to complete the story.

Ballet - Photographs of the New York City Ballet - Henry Leutwyler
Das New York City Ballet (NYCB) ist eine der berühmtesten klassischen Balletcompagnien der Welt -und gelebte Kultur! Die Compagnie wird von der Stadt New York und einem leidenschaftlichen Publikum gehegt, gepflegt und gefeiert und einige der wichtigsten Namen der Balletgeschichte, darunter George Balanchine, sind mit diesem Ensemble verbunden. Seit nunmehr 23 Jahren führt der dänische Ex-Tänzer Peter Martins das NYCB von Erfolg zu Erfolg und zu grossem Weltruhm.
Für Henry Leutwyler war es im Winter 2012 deshalb ein sagenhafter Moment, als Martins ihn unverhofft und ohne Auflagen einen noch nie dagewesenen Zugang zum Backstage, zu den gut gehüteten Bereichen der Tänzerinnen und Tänzer gewährte.

Neverland Lost - A Portrait of Michael Jackson - Henry Leutwyler
Drei Tage hat Henry Leutwyler Zeit! Aus tausenden von persönlichen Gegenständen von Michael Jackson fotografiert er Kostüme, Bilder, Pokale, Möbel, Alltagsgegenstände des «King of Pop». Dann kommt alles unter den Hammer, wird versteigert.
Die Zeit reicht nicht! Leutwyler fährt nach Kalifornien auf Jacksons Ranch «Neverland Lost» und kehrt mit den Stücken zurück nach New York, die er braucht, um die Geschichte zu beenden.
"Meine Absicht war und ist es heute noch, diese Waren zu dokumentieren", sagt Leutwyler. "An einer Auktion verlieren sich die Spuren der Objekte. Wer am meisten bietet, erhält den Zuschlag, und niemand weiss, wohin die Sachen verschwinden, vielleicht in einen Safe, vielleicht in einen Keller, wer weiss."

Henry Leutwyler presents « Ballet » at the Foley Gallery
We are pleased to present an unprecedented look at the New York City Ballet with photographer Henry Leutwyler's exhibition Ballet, opening on Wednesday, November 28th, 2012.
After collaborating with the New York City Ballet for many years, Leutwyler was granted unprecedented backstage access to the NYCB during the winter of 2012. Using his 35mm Leica, he explored the performers' personal space and produced honest, unguarded moments of more than 80 dancers from the company. From classes, to rehearsals, to the moment when the curtain rises, Leutwyler's images reveal details of the ballet that few of us have been granted the opportunity to see.
Recalling Alexey Brodovitch's ballet photography in the late 1930's, Leutwyler examines the pageantry of color and costume both in perfor... - Exposition
Les objets magiques de Michael Jackson, par Henry Leutwyler
Photographer Henry Leutwyler will personally open an exhibition on which will be represented a series of works Neverland Lost – A portrait of Michael Jackson. Pictures of personal things and scenic suits of the legendary king of pop music of Michael Jackson have been made on the threshold of sale of property on ranch Neverland in California.
Henry Leutwyler born in Switzerland, traveled all over the world, learning life, culture and wisdom of the different nations. He journeyed through Africa, Asia and the Middle East – ultimately landing in Paris for ten years, where he was inspired and worked. Since 1996 he lives and works in New York, in studio on Manhattan. His works were published in such known international editions, as The New York Times, Vogue and Esquire. His photographs have earned him the A... - Exposition
Nerverland Lost - Henry Leutwyler
Neverland Lost is the premier exhibition of color photographs by HENRY LEUTWYLER. In stark objectivity, Neverland Lost examines the Michael Jackson myth through portraits of personal items and pieces of his stage costumes—like the iconic sparkling glove—that were removed from Jackson's Neverland Ranch and intended for auction. The exhibition coincides with the release of Leutwyler’s monograph published by Steidl of the same name....
