American fashion, celebrity and music photographer Carrie Schechter was brought to Moscow for a 120 piece solo exhibition of her work entitled, Walking in Beauty. The Ministerio della Belleza, organizer and one of the sponsors, threw a magnificent celebration for Carrie’s work at the famous and elite Moscow hot spot, Club Manon, for a private view on June 11, 2009. The night called “Peeping the Beauty – Carrie Schechter” was star studded, with editors from Russian fashion and celebrity magazines such as Cosmo and GQ, music producers, pop stars, Olympic gold medalists, athletes, artists, bankers, and models. Ministerio Della Belleza flew Fredrico Zecchin and his band to Russia from Italy to play incredible music throughout the night for Carrie’s party. Carrie’s work will be on display in Club Mon this July, as well as LUCH/Electrosvet, and many other night spots and clubs in Moscow TBA.
During her time in Russia, Carrie did television interviews on Russia’s cultural channels and morning shows. The people of Moscow took a huge interest in Carrie’s imagery and Carrie herself. The concepts and stories behind her work caused quite a stir in the Russian art world. Fans found her work erotic, beautiful and powerful. She has received write-ups in Moscow’s OK, Time-Out and others.
The main gallery show opened two nights later on June 13, 2009 at Gallery N also known as the Gallery of Skill, located on Beskudnikovskij Bulvar, 6-4. Here Carrie displayed 120 pieces of her work throughout the entire gallery in 5 rooms and 3 hallways. Beauty, fashion, music, and celebrity separated each room.
Moscow gave Carrie a very warm welcome, showing a great deal of interest in her photographs and in her as an artist. The people of Moscow said they are anxious for her to return to photograph the city, their models, musicians and celebrities.
