Erarta Museum presents an exhibition of iconic photo portraits created by Danil Golovkin for Vogue, ELLE, Harper's Bazaar, GQ, Tatler, Esquire and other fashion publications.

Danil Golovkin is one of the most frequently published photographers of Russian gloss. Danil's lens was visited by the main Russian media figures - from Alena Doletskaya, Fyodor Bondarchuk and Theodor Currentzis to Natalia Vodianova, Sergey Polunin and Paulina Andreeva.

He also has portraits of world-famous stars: Naomi Campbell, Adrian Brody, Gerard Butler, Philippe Stark, Giorgio Armani, John Galliano, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, Annie Leibovitz, Milla Jovovich. The exhibition in Erarta will feature 60 of the author's most famous works.

Golovkin's path to fashion photography began 10 years ago, on the set for a special edition of ELLE magazine. Thanks to Danil's colossal hard work and talent, his photographs have firmly established themselves on the pages of the largest fashion publications. A graphic artist by training, he does not just photographs demanded by publications - he creates extraordinary images for the first persons of Russian show business.

Danil shows his models from new, unexpected sides. The rebel Basta, building a fragile house of cards, the unpredictable Renata Litvinova in an octopus dress, Semyon Slepakov in the image of the "Son of Man" by René Magritte - Golovkin's portraits leave the feeling that now you know a little more about their heroes. Perhaps that is why they are taking over social media so quickly and turning into business cards for celebrities captured by the photographer.
