  • Résumé

  • 'Letters are a very private view into relationships and peoples thoughts' Ami Bouhassane shares letters from her grandparents, held in the Lee Miller's Archives.


    The first series 'Love Letters Bound in Gold Handcuffs' explores the 300 pages of unedited love letters written between the iconic photographer Lee Miller and the Surrealist artist Roland Penrose during their courtship. Starting just a few days after they first met in June 1937 at a fancy dress party in Paris, the letters continue for 2 years charting their love, their friends such as Man Ray, Picasso, Leonora Carrington, Max Ernst, Nusch and Paul Eluard, their adventures, the build up of world war II, some scandals and a lot of fun.

    'When you look at your parents or grandparents it's hard to imagine them as young lovers full of adventure' Ami Bouhassane shares love letters from her grandparents, held in the Lee Miller's Archives.


    The second series 'Lee Miller's War Correspondence' picks up where we left Lee Miller having moved to live in England with the Surrealist artist Roland Penrose. However this series explores the unedited letters written by the iconic photographer Lee Miller to her family and friends during WWII. The perspective and different tones in which she writes to her parents, her lover (the Surrealist artist Roland Penrose), her brothers and friends give a wonderful insight into Lee Miller's thoughts and experiences in Britain before she parts to cover the war in Europe.
