Grace Coddington, Creative Director US Vogue Magazine, and her "Memoir" had created News for a while and while this is going on, her Vintage Pictures will be on display in London's Ivy Club from September 2011. This art show is to be dedicated to Coddington's ex-husband, Willie Christie's photography. The show will feature intimate shots from the couple’s four year marriage, along with photos taken for Vogue.
Christie shot pics of a 30-year-old Coddington at the start of their marriage, and nearly 40 years later, he has nothing but good things to say about his ex-wife.
“For me, she was still photographic heaven. She was so brilliant as a model because she had an appreciation and understanding of art in all its forms; mimicry, gentleness, and serenity. She understood everything that the clothes were trying to do. She became the image. She had then and still has, an absolute passion for all that she does. Photographically — and personally — Grace was everything I was looking for. And she was willing. Lucky me!”
