10 Corso Como opens Milan Fashion Week with Atlas, the first solo exhibition devoted to the legendary British fashion photographer and portraitist Glen Luchford. Entirely conceived and designed by Luchford, the exhibition dives into what he describes as a “visual orgy”—a meeting ground of his iconic fashion images, personal snapshots, outtakes, and a new installation unveiled for the first time.
Curated by Alessio de’ Navasques, Atlas traces the artist’s trajectory back to the 1990s, the decade that defind his rise. Visitors move from his raw beginnings at The Face, through the seminal Prada Spring/Summer 1997 campaign, to the lush extravagance of Gucci. Across these decades, Luchford’s work is tied together by a relentless dismantling of beauty conventions, reassembling them with a sense of realism rooted in the everyday.
The show’s staging emphasizes this restless spirit: large-scale prints, layered pieces, collages, and fashion films fold into one another, forming a continuum of motion and transformation. Drawing inspiration from futurism, punk energy, ’90s British grit, and even the cinematic mood of Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver, Luchford’s vision emerges as both opulent and unpredictable—a body of work impossible to freeze in a single definition.
Atlas runs at 10 Corso Como, Milan, from September 25 to November 23, inviting visitors to step into the beating pulse of Luchford’s restless creative universe.
