Not everybody knows that Helena Christensen is actually a pretty good photographer in addition to being a very pretty model. Her work’s appeared in Marie Claire and ELLE, and she’s had several exhibitions here and abroad.
But if you haven’t had the pleasure of taking her handiwork in, we suggest stopping by the Dactyl Foundation Gallery at 64 Grand Street anytime between December 15th and January 10th.
That’s where Helena’s next exhibit takes place, a series of photos she’s titled “Far from, close”. For every work sold, Dactyl will give a child at The Point a camera of his/her very own, and all proceeds will benefit The Point and CPI Chernobyl organization.
But the opening night party will be thrown by People’s Revolution – so don’t come unless you’re ready for potential cameras!
