W orking with Willy and his wonderful wife
Dominique has been one of the most stimulating and fascinating aspects of life at Mallett
over the last few years. Since our first exhibition of his vintage work and portrait photo-
graphy we have been amazed and delighted by the interest that has been generated both
in Europe and in America. Many old friends and clients of Willy have been in contact and
a whole new generation of enthusiasts has been born.

Sitting in Willy’s dining room in Paris eating delicious pasta washed down by a glass (or
two) of wine, one is constantly inspired by Willy’s sense of humour and energy. Many a
time he would walk around and point to himself and ask me “why does everyone want
vintage? Am I a vintage? Here I am.” He jokes that he is his own ‘père et fils’. In our minds
we see the sign above the shop “Willy Rizzo, père et fils”. It is also true, he has had a
long and successful career but he is also keen on the future and thinking about what next.
Following the success and sell out of his last show his creative brain went into overdrive
planning and trying to improve and reinvent the best pieces. The product, two years later,
is the exhibition and catalogue that accompanies it. Included are some completely new
pieces, others inspired by his creations from the 60s and 70s and finally adapted pieces
from previous designs. All are offered with certification and, except for the lamps, are
limited edition.

In addition and perhaps with an eye to the ‘père’ sobriquet we are offering a collection of
limited edition silver gelatin prints taken by Willy of dance and the ballet in Paris in the
1950s. This collection is largely unpublished and never before produced at this size. For
both the enthusiast and the amateur we hope the marvellously conceived and executed
images will prove enticing. To accompany the collection Willy has designed and made a
new steel frame.

We hope you enjoy the catalogue and have a chance to visit the show either in London or
in New York. Please contact any of our sales team if you have any questions.

D uring the Fifties Willy Rizzo, master of the


scoop, one of the world's greatest photojournalists in a golden age of reportage, was
travelling around the world to cover the hottest stories. His Leica and Rolleiflex recorded
the tragedies of war in Indo-China (now Vietnam) a coup d'état in Egypt. He was first in
the Vatican to photograph the new Pope Pius XII. His colour portrait of Winston Churchill
made the first cover of Paris-Match. He took pictures of the Kings of Morocco and Jordan
and newly elected Presidents of France, where no one else could penetrate the protocol.

A Rizzo photo reportage devoted to Maria Callas inspired Hergé to create ‘Walter Rizotto’,

the ultimate cameraman, for a Tintin adventure The Castafiore Emerald.

Away from the heat of reporting, he was preoccupied by an extraordinary variety of


subjects. He carried out original research into the lives of Jules Verne and Leonardo da
Vinci, and, not surprising given his love of movie stars, the history of Los Angeles.

Willy Rizzo enjoyed being part of a charmed circle in Paris during the fifties. He was the
‘grand seigneur’ among a new photo-aristocracy. The houses of such cultivated friends as
the surrealist artist Jean Cocteau, and Louise de Vilmorin, writer of exquisite novels,
inspired him to start interior decorating, where he always put structure and space ahead
of bibelots.

Rizzo has always understood fashion, ordered his own suits from the finest tailors, adored
beautiful elegant women. In the Fifties Alex Liberman art director of Vogue (Rizzo has
always known EVERYONE), a creative genius who had commissioned such masters of
photography as Kertesz, Capa and Brassai, asked him to 'use his eye' for haute couture.

This was an immensely difficult new technique for Rizzo to master, after the immediacy of
reporting. It meant experimenting with different lighting techniques, taking on an altogether
unfamiliar artistic discipline.

Above and opposite, To follow his successful pictures of high fashion, the next step for Willy Rizzo was to catch
spreads from Paris
Match between 1949
the spirit of dance, an art form he has always loved. As a child he took modern dance and
and 1955 tap lessons, later classical ballet classes in the academies of the Champs Elysees.

Another technical challenge to be faced, he had to devise a way to seize that airy leap, or
fleeting expression, and to inspire the dancers. He told them to imagine being filmed by
a movie camera which records 24 frames in a second.

His ingenious device was a 'kalart' (invented in 1930 for military purposes) attached to the
front of his Rolleiflex which allowed the focus to be synchronised with flash lamps. This
system allowed him to catch natural movement on a still camera, impossible if he had to
rely on natural or theatre lighting.

W I L LY R I Z Z O
Only flash will allow the camera to be set at a fast enough speed. Progress came years
later when cameras were manufactured with an internal synchronised flash mechanism.

An artist but also a gifted technical innovator, Willy Rizzo greatly expanded his photographic
repertoire during the fifties from portraits of actors and reporting. He transformed fashion
models into dream creatures and miraculously caught dancers in flight.

His social life informed his interest in design and decoration, leading to furniture design in
1968, a new chapter in his life. Willy Rizzo has equal gifts as creator of unforgettable
photographic images, and furniture on pure neo-classical lines, which will stand the test
of time.

Each print will be signed and numbered and are in editions of eight.

Especially for this exhibition Willy has designed and produced a new design
of frame which will be both signed and numbered in the same edition size
as the photographs. Each of the frames has been made under his controlling
eye and offers a unique opportunity to enjoy the fusion of artist and designer
that is Willy Rizzo.

The brushed steel and brass design harmonises elegantly with the images
and captures both the spirit of the age and our era.

The frames can be ordered ‘off set’ and could be mounted with mirror plate.

CARMEN ROJAS, 1955


THE SPIRIT OF FLAMENCO

Carmen Rojas, as Rosario in the Tanguillo de Cadix. Produced by Antonio y los


Ballets de Madrid. She danced a mixture of old flamenco songs, which had been
discovered and revived by the famous poet Garcia Lorca. The Flamenco is a
deceptively easy dance to perform. When performed by a master it gives the
impression that anyone can do it however the opposite is the truth as only years
of training and probably Spanish blood make it both magical and accessible.

LA NUIT EST UNE SORCIÈRE, THÉATRE


DES CHAMPS-ÉLYSÉES, 1955
BALANCING THE NEEDS OF THE DANCER
WITH THOSE OF THE PHOTOGRAPHER

This ballet is most romantic, perhaps made more so in


this performance by the fact that the two lead dancers
Josette Clavier and Pierre Lacotte were married in real
life. A bird seller, danced by Clavier, is sad because she
has lost her favourite bird. A mysterious boy, danced by
Lacotte, choreographer and founder of Les Ballets de
la Tour Eiffel, brings it back and they fall in love. Sidney
Bechet, who composed the music for this ballet,
performed on saxophone, Daniel Wayenberg played
the piano accompanied by Charles Aznavour, the world
famous singer.

“Photographing Ballet is extremely hard as it is impossible


to take the same picture twice. One has to balance the
needs of the dancer with those of the photographer; it is
too often the case that beautiful steps are not photogenic.
I like the poses in this photograph because though
obviously static they give an idea of movement.”

FRED ASTAIRE AND AUDREY HEPBURN, 1956


WILLY RIZZO'S LEICA AND A GIVENCHY DRESS

In the film Funny Face, Fred Astaire caricatures the photographer trying to find
the best angle for his model in her Givenchy dress. Hepburn took ballet lessons
in order to be able to dance with this legend of dance. “I took these pictures with
a Leica, we worked outside all day but my camera had a fault which would have
been impossible to notice before and the pictures were ruined. I went to see
Audrey to tell her how upset I was. I also knew Fred Astaire of whom I had taken
several portraits. They were very kind and agreed to shoot the pictures again.”

SERGE GOLOVINE, 1958
THIS ‘BOND’ OR LEAP INSPIRED BY NIJINSKY

After Vaslav Nijinsky created Le Bond du Spectre de la Rose in 1911, Serge


Golovine (1924-1998) rediscovers it. Bronislava Nijinska, Nijinsky’s sister, taught
Golovine how to keep his balance in the air using the strength of his abdominal
muscles. Golovine was a star of the Grand Ballet du Marquis de Cuevas
throughout the 1950s working alongside dancers such as Rosella Hightower,
Marjorie Tallchief, Georges Skibine, and Georges Zoritch.

SERGE GOLOVINE, 1958


AN ARTIST FAMOUS FOR HIS ACROBATIC LEAPS

“He (Golovine) demonstrated many different ballet positions. We choose one for
him which he rehearsed many times. I fixed my lighting and I shot the picture. I
know when I have the right image.” Golovine was famous for his airborne leaps
and the lightness and articulation of his footwork. This shot was taken at the
time he was performing in Le Spectre de la Rose and is typical of this ballet
which features a number of challenging choreographic leaps.

STUDENTS AT THE OPÉRA DE PARIS, 1954


A MOMENT OF LAUGHTER AMID INTENSE REHEARSAL

This building is significant in the history of ballet and its development as an


art. Pierre Beauchamps, the first choreographer of the Opéra de Paris, used to
throw grain to the pigeons to derive inspiration from the groups they formed.
He has been credited with the codification of the five positions of the feet.
Serge Lifar was director of the Opéra de Paris in the 1930s and began a strictly
disciplined routine. He even asked to switch off the lights on the stage so that
the ballerinas could not be recognised by their admirers. He instituted weekly
ballet performances laying emphasis upon the art of ballet in its own right as
opposed to solely in conjunction with opera.

“Five minutes before this picture was taken, the wire had broken and Colleano
had fallen.” At 51 years old Con Colleano (1899-1973) was the greatest tightrope
walker in the world. Born in Australia he adopted a Spanish toreador persona
in April 1924 in order to boost box office sales. His act included bull-fighting
movements from the ring, Spanish dance moves on the wire along with a
dangerous forward somersault. He worked with the fantastic Ringling Bros.
and Barnum & Bailey circus in the United States.

front of Théâtre des Champs Élysées and looked at this young dancer crossing
the street. It gave me an idea. I told her I wanted to put her on the cover of
Paris Match. She laughed and said “I am not fooled by that old story!”. But she
was persuaded and I shot her photo at her parents’ house the very next day in
Bagatelle. I put a branch of lilies in her hand and took the picture. Sometime
after Gene Kelly called the magazine and asked for me, he wanted to know
how to find this girl. This was the start of her career.”

ROSELLA HIGHTOWER, 1951


A STAR IS BORN AT THE EMPIRE THEATRE

Along the Seine in Paris, the legacy of Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes had inspired a
new generation of dancers and was breathing new energy into classical ballet.
Hightower is the proof. When she first danced in Paris at the Alhambra, 1947,
with the Grand Ballet du Marquis du Cuevas, she received only a warm
reception but went on to receive high acclaim for her role in Swan Lake
amongst many others. The role of the Black Swan is a huge challenge for any
ballerina. The music is composed by Tchaïkovsky and the choregraphy was by
Marius Petipa (1822-1910).

Hightower began her dance training at the class of Dorothy Perkins in Kansas
City. In 1937 she went to Monte Carlo at the invitation of Léonide Massine,
principal choreographer of Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes. She joined the Grand
Ballet du Marquis du Cuevas in 1947. The Marquis du Cuevas (of Santiago,
Chile), was the husband of a grand-daughter of Rockfeller; an eccentric
personality who had a huge passion for dance and Ballet in particular.

TUTUS AT THE OPÉRA DE PARIS, 1954


THE MAGIC AND DRAMA OF BALLET SUSPENDED IN TIME

46
P H OTO G RAP H S
This year witnessed the introduction of tutus
for its ballerinas. Dance costume has evolved
considerably since women began performing
in 1681. The first ballerina to dance “without
pannier, skirt or bodice”, wearing only a muslin
dress over her petticoat, was Marie Sallé in
1734, in order to have freer movement and
so that her audience could see her graceful
footwork. However, it was not until the end
of 19th century that the bell-shaped tulle
skirts were replaced with 16-layer tutus which
allowed ballerinas much greater mobility. These
in turn were replaced with the short ‘powder-
puff’ tutus instigated under George Balanchine’s
directorship at the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo
in 1950. This tutu design can be seen above
and is used in ballet companies worldwide.
“For me The Opera is the palace of the stars,
where golden voices sing out and we attend the
mysteries of this palace of mirages where the
public can worship and pay homage to the lords
of performance.”

RIZZO
MODERN
DESIGN

M allett have collaborated with Willy Rizzo to
launch a new collection of furniture. His sleek and innovative neo-classical designs, each as a
pair and in limited edition in 'noble materials' such as stone, marble, brass and stainless steel,
will be for sale at Mallett in London and New York during October and November.

Each piece has been conceived for the way we live now. Rizzo chose to work with Mallett for a
second time, confident that they combine a profound knowledge of craftsmanship with a feeling
for changing fashion. They alone have rediscovered the Rizzo star quality and its contemporary
relevance. Glamorous, comfortable, adaptable, indestructible, timeless furniture, equally at home
in a minimalist as a grand traditional interior. Vintage pieces have been tripling in value over the
last few years. Inferior versions, sometimes obvious copies, were beginning to appear. It seemed
timely to re-introduce a new and original collection.

Willy Rizzo made his name photographing beautiful people, who adored his company, and
always will. But the bon viveur artist who charmed celebrities was also an inventor, a gifted
technician, a follower of Leonardo.

In 1968 he went to live in Rome and started to design furniture for his own apartment, inspired
by classical principles, made by a small group of craftsmen. Antiques were uncomfortable,
Scandinavian and psychedelic style unsympathetic. His ultra chic brown, black and gold
decoration, glossy geometric furniture, including tables with a 'bassin' for chilled champagne,
and a lamp to 'encourage flirting' brought all the Dolce Vita princes and playboys of the newly
named Jet Set, wanting more of the same. Commissions came from Brigitte Bardot and
Salvador Dali. The Rizzo atelier grew to employ 150 cabinetmakers, and the world took notice.

But in 1980 Rizzo decided to return to photography. His furniture retreated into the shadows, but
now thanks to Mallett prescience, returns to the limelight it deserves in a collection of signed,
limited edition works, each piece supported by a certificate of authenticity.
