"Steven Meisel 1993 A Year in Photographs" collects the work of this master of photography during 1993, a decisive year in his career, which stands out for his close collaboration with Vogue and in which he signed 28 covers and more than 100 editorials for the magazine.
The exhibition, whose selection of images has been in charge of Steven Meisel's own studio, presents more than one hundred portraits of men and women from the world of fashion and cinema such as Linda Evangelista, Carla Bruni, Naomi Campbell, Hamish Bowles, Kyle MacLachlan, Claudia Schiffer, Jaye Davidson, Barbra Streisand, Marlon Richards, Isabella Blow, Amanda Harlech or Twiggy.
Steven Meisel is considered one of the most relevant and prolific fashion photographers of his generation and the driving force behind the careers of many of these famous models in the 1990s.

Naomi Campbell remembers it this way: “We were very supportive of each other. Work was work but it didn’t feel like work, it was also fun and we would work all hours of the night to achieve what we wanted to achieve — the goal, the look, the whole vibe of the shoot. It was a special time.” According to Hamish Bowles, “Steven Meisel is an alchemist. He can take something that looks like one thing and transform it into something utterly different.”
Steven Meisel 1993 A Year in Photographs is a project of the Marta Ortega Pérez Foundation (MOP Foundation), which structures its activity on three pillars: A Coruña, photography and fashion. The MOP Foundation has an exhibition space in the port area of A Coruña designed by the architect Elsa Urquijo from A Coruña.
