Christophe von Hohenberg: A Cornucopia in Photography presents a retrospective of over 30 years of the artist’s vibrant career. The exhibition highlights a collection of von Hohenberg’s most poignant photographs and features a vast range of work including portraiture, nudes, photographic essays, and images from his Warhol book. In a suite of photographs von Hohenberg captures images of pop icons. The contemporary subject matter in Rockettes is presented via a classic, thoughtful composition. All photographs are various silver prints ranging from twenty by twenty inch single panels to a quadtych measuring forty by forty-four inches.

Later he expanded his career to work with such publications as Interview, Vanity Fair, Marie Claire, German Vogue, German Rolling Stone, The New York Times Magazine, French Vogue, and Hamptons Magazine. The book Andy Warhol: The Day the Factory Died by Christophe von Hohenberg and Charlie Scheips received the Photo District News Photography Book Award and the AIGA Book Award in 2007. Von Hohenberg is represented by Empire Fine Arts in New York City. His work has been shown at The Museum of Modern Art in New York, as well as The Grey Art Gallery in New York, the Art Interior in Berlin, and the Valentina Moncada in Rome.
