212 Photography Istanbul
September 26 to October 11, 2026

One of the pioneers who brought fashion photography out of the studio and into the streets, Frank Horvat blurred the boundaries between the spontaneity of everyday life and the constructed image. From Paris to London, he placed models within the flow of the city while preserving a striking sense of intimacy, confidence and natural presence. Inspired by Horvat’s belief that photography is as much about knowing when not to press the shutter as when to capture an image, Please. Don’t Smile. offers a glimpse into the distinctive visual language of one of photography’s most singular voices.

Terme di Caracalla
September 11, 2026, to January 10, 2027

Seventy years of aesthetic and cultural research disseminated across 72 images that span the spaces of the Terme di Caracalla . From September 11, 2026, to January 10, 2027, a major exhibition by photographer Frank Horvat , who has shaped the imagination by rewriting fashion and travel photography, opens.

The exhibition, promoted by the Soprintendenza Speciale di Roma and organized by Electa, is curated by Studio Horvat (Fiammetta Horvat and Mathilde Oudin) and Nunzio Giustozzi.

The exhibition is divided into three sections: portraits dedicated to the women, displayed in one of the gymnasiums of the Baths of Caracalla, with a focus on the photoshoots created by the photographer at the Galleria L'Obelisco at the invitation of Irene Brin and Gaspero del Corso. The second section is again dedicated to women with Vere Sembianze (Vraies Semblances) , set in the vaulted rooms of the Baths, while the third focuses on the Goethe in Sicily series created in the early 1980s.

The volume, published by Electa, follows and explores the three sections of the exhibition with writings by Horvat and a recollection by Ferdinando Scianna that opens the text.

Frank Horvat: Gift Moments, A Personal Selection from a Lifetime of Photography

In my case, getting curators and publishers to recognize my approach has been particularly difficult, because my photography is a “house with 15 keys”.

 This exhibition includes both important early work and fashion photography which Horvat included in his final, complete selection from a lifetime in photography. While it is only a small subset of the full and diverse range of Horvat’s work, it does include many images never before presented in an exhibition, anywhere in the world. This seemed to me the best way to introduce Frank Horvat to the dynamic and creative nation of China, which has it’s own profound and vital artistic history. The goal is to create a dialogue between this influential individual artist and the artistic energy of China, which is both deeply rooted in history and increasingly at the forefront on the world stage. My hope is that these “Gift Moments” will resonate with a new audience, inspiring both an appreciation of Frank Horvat’s vision and a deeper mutual understanding between cultures.

Château La Coste est heureux de présenter Laisser la vie se produire, une exposition dédiée à l’œuvre du photographe Frank Horvat.
Emprunté à une phrase de Rainer Maria Rilke, poète profondément admiré par l’artiste, le titre de l’exposition résonne comme une invitation à habiter le monde tel qu’il est. Tout au long de sa carrière, Horvat a observé la réalité avec une liberté rare, laissant surgir des instants fugaces, des corps en mouvement et des cadrages inattendus — mettant sans cesse à l’épreuve la capacité de la photographie à suspendre le temps tout en restant ouverte au hasard.
