Starting in 1970, June Newton created her own photographic works under the pseudonym Alice Springs. These have been exhibited regularly at the Helmut Newton Foundation since 2005, namely in 'June's Room.' The current retrospective in Berlin provides for the first time a comprehensive view of the four decades spanning her work, presenting photographs from advertising and fashion as well as nudes and portraits. Her own photographic oeuvre began with a bout of influenza suffered by Helmut Newton in Paris, 1970. June Newton had her husband show her how to handle the camera and light meter and, in his place, photographed an advertisement for the French cigarette brand Gitanes. The portrait of the smoking model would be the jump-start of a new career.
