MONTE-CARLO SERIES (1980-2011)
2011 Soufer Gallery, Madison Avenue, New York
Shot in abandoned 19th century villas in and around Monte-Carlo from 1980 to 1982, when the artist was a 16 year old teenager, the photographs feature young women in the artist's circle playfully posing in eccentric vintage attire. Shabelewska captures a juxtaposition of space and form with the unique use of light and perspective. The resulting images are provocative and flirtatious. A unique edition of 12 photographs, from the collection of 24, were produced in large format and presented at Soufer Gallery in 2011 with the Support of The Consulate General of Monaco in New York and The Monaco Government Tourist Office.
