Karl Lagerfeld: Fire Etchings | Galerie Gmurzynska Switzerland

Karl Lagerfeld, the jack of all trades, has now extended his mastery into a red hot medium- fire!  Karl Lagerfeld: Fire Etchings,  one of Karl’s latest projectsfeatures a series of “contemporary portraitures” of modern famous faces such one of his favorite models Freja Beha Erichsen, along with Aymeline Valade, and fresh rapper phenom Theophilus London. Uniting Lagerfeld’s photographic prowess with the wild medium created an eye-catching result. Each mega-portrait was formed by etching the image onto the slick surface with the help of fire, then creating a glowing look through lights shining behind the backlit glass.
