HELMUT NEWTON (Germany, 1920- California, 2004). "Sylvia Examining Her High Heeled Shoes in My Studio," Paris, 1981. Gelatin silver. Signed, titled, dated and annotated in pencil. Provenance: Maurizio Siniscaldo Gallery, Naples, Italy. Measurements: 54,6 x 40 cm (image). "Sylvia examining her high heels in my studio" is a photograph that reflects many of the themes that define Helmut Newton's way of working: the carefully crafted composition (with the light of a street lamp filtering in from the darkness of the urban night contrasts with the clarity of the nude and the window frame), the fetish element of the stiletto-heeled shoes that Sylvia holds without mannerism.... Newton often explores themes of power, control and fetishism in her work. In this image, the woman's introspective countenance (oblivious to the gaze of male desire) and the naturalness of her posture empower her, rather than reducing her to the stereotypical female object. In doing so, Newton redefines the parameters of erotic and fashion photography: provocation, anti-voyeurism and female empowerment are his attributes. His women do not appear languid as odalisques but defiant, unabashed and without admitting easy voyeurism. In photographs such as this one, she explores the boundaries between the intimate and the public, while carefully planning her compositions to maximize visual impact. Newton was born in Berlin, attended the Heinrich-von-Treitschke-Realgymnasium and the American School in Berlin. Interested in photography from the age of 12 when he bought his first camera, he worked for German photographer Yva (Elsie Neuländer Simon) from 1936.The increasingly oppressive restrictions imposed on Jews by the Nuremberg laws caused his father to lose control of the factory; he was briefly interned in a concentration camp on Kristallnacht, , which eventually forced the family to leave Germany. Newton's parents fled to Argentina. Finally, arriving in Singapore, he found he could remain there, first briefly as a photographer for the Straits Times and then as a portrait photographer. Newton was interned by British authorities while in Singapore and was sent to Australia aboard the Queen Mary, arriving in Sydney on September 27, 1940. He was released from internment in 1942 and worked briefly as a fruit picker in northern Victoria. In April 1942, he enlisted in the Australian Army and worked as a truck driver. After the war in 1945, he became a British subject and changed his name to Newton in 1946. That same year, Newton set up a studio on Flinders Lane in Melbourne and worked in fashion, theater and industrial photography during the postwar period. He shared his first joint exhibition in May 1953 with Wolfgang Sievers,The 'New Visions in Photography' exhibition was shown at the Federal Hotel in Collins Street and was probably the first glimpse of New Objectivity photography in Australia. Newton became associated with Henry Talbot, a German Jew who had also interned at Tatura, and his association with the studio continued even after 1957, when he left Australia for London. The studio was renamed 'Helmut Newton and Henry Talbot'. Newton's growing reputation as a fashion photographer was rewarded when he secured a commission to illustrate fashions in a special Australian supplement for Vogue magazine, published in January 1956. He won a 12-month contract with British Vogue and left for London in February 1957, leaving Talbot to manage the business. Newton left the magazine before the end of his contract and went to Paris, where he worked for French and German magazines. He returned to Melbourne in March 1959 to work with Australian Vogue. Newton and his wife finally settled in Paris in 1961. His images appeared in magazines such as the French edition of Vogue and Harper's Bazaar. He established a particular style marked by erotic and stylized scenes, often with fetishistic subtexts. In 1980 he created the "Big Nudes" series. His "Nude and Clothed" portfolio followed, and in 1992 "Domestic Nudes," which marked the pinnacle of his erotic-urban style, all of these series supported the dexterity of his technical skills. Newton also worked on more fantastical portraits and studies. He did a series of illustrations for Playboy, including illustrations of Nastassja Kinski and Kristine DeBell.

Setdart Subastas and its fiscal figure Setdart Online SL act as mediators between the owner and the buyer of each lot.
To be able to bid on Setdart, it is necessary to register as a user, after reading these Conditions and the Privacy Policy. Enter the link on the Home page "Register as a user" and correctly fill in the boxes with your data. The form will ask you to enter a "user code" and a "password".

When bidding Setdart presents you with several alternatives. The first is to bid directly for the next amount the auction goes for; When entering the lot, mark the quantity you want to bid on. When accepting the bid, a proforma appears on the screen with the total amount that would be paid if the lot is awarded, including the commission and VAT on the commission. Only when you accept this proforma, will your bid enter the lot. Remember that to place a bid you must always be logged in as a user. You can also make the EXPRESS BID, in which you will bid directly for the higher amount without opening the information window.
Another option is SELF-BID: You have the possibility to bid for a higher amount, using the drop-down. In the latter case, the AutoBid system will be activated. The AutoBid is an automatic bidding system in which the system itself will enter your bid, revealing the immediately subsequent bid and will in turn save the highest bid you have made. This will not enter the auction unless another user exceeds it. Ultimately, the SELF-BID will allow you to record your maximum amount that will only be activated in the event that you are exceeded or that the piece has not reached its reserve price.

The lots presented at auction have a Reserve Price, that is, a confidential minimum price agreed between the consignor or transferor-seller and Setdart. If at the end of the auction the last bid does not reach this reserve price, the lot is not awarded and therefore it is not sold. Before the auction ends, the transferor-seller can modify the reserve price downwards in order to accept or move closer to the last existing offer at that time. Therefore, the agreed reserve price may be downward with the consent of the consignee.
Each lot is marked with a Low Estimate and a High Estimate, which represents the opinion of Setdart's experts about the range at which a lot is likely to sell at auction. Estimates are based on examining the lot or item and comparing market prices for comparable works. These estimates provide buyers with a prior indication of value and are generally a basis for setting the reserve price. The buyer can be sure that if he meets or exceeds the low estimate, he has reached the minimum price or reserve of the lot but this does not mean that the reserve price is equal to the low estimate as the reserve price may be lower.
In Setdart there are also lots at Free Price, this means that there is no reserve price and, therefore, they are sold whenever there is a bid, whatever its value.
It is strictly forbidden for any transferor / seller to make, personally or through third parties, bids on their own lots with the aim of increasing the award values of the lots and not with the intention of buying. In the event that such an action is detected, Setdart reserves the right to immediately cancel the user accounts used for this purpose, and to withdraw the auction lots from the transferor seller.
In the event that a lot has not reached the reserve price, before the auction time ends, Setdart's bidding system indicates in the bid history "Reserve Price Not Reached" and the auction time automatically increases. 3 minutes so that potential buyers can continue bidding if they want to win that lot. Only in this case, the system will admit that the same bidder exceeds his last offer in order to reach the reserve price and win the lot. Once the duration of the auction is over, when the timer indicates "This auction has ended", the user will be able to see if the lot has not reached the reserve price and, therefore, the lot has not been awarded, or if On the contrary, the lot has been awarded and sold.
If you are the winner of a lot, you will receive an e-mail informing you of the award once the day's auctions are over. During the next day you will receive the budget for your settlement. The settlement period is seven working days.

Additional insurance:
If you wish to take out additional insurance to cover the total amount of the lot, you can contact us and we will carry out the management with an insurance company specialized in objects of art and / or jewelry.
Prices:
In Setdart we have preferred to adopt the auction system with Estimate and Reserve Price since it seems to us a more flexible system and that allows a greater rapprochement and understanding between Offer and Demand.
As already indicated in the Conditions of sale, most pieces at auction have a reserve price, that is, a confidential minimum price agreed between the transferor-seller and Setdart.com. If at the end of the auction the last bid does not reach this reserve price, the lot is not awarded and therefore it is not sold. Before the auction ends, the transferor-seller can modify the reserve price downwards in order to accept or move closer to the last existing offer at that time. Thus, the agreed reserve price is movable downward. In Setdart there are also lots at Free Price, this means that there is no reserve price and, therefore, they are sold whenever there is a bid, whatever its value.
Each lot is marked with a low estimate and a high estimate, which represents the opinion of Setdart's experts about the range at which a lot may be sold at auction. Estimates are based on examining the lot or item and comparing market prices for comparable works. These estimates provide buyers with a prior indication of value and are generally a basis for setting the reserve price. The buyer can be sure that if he meets or exceeds the low estimate, he has reached the minimum price or reserve of the lot but this does not mean that the reserve price is equal to the low estimate as the reserve price may be lower.
During the last hour of the auction process for each lot, Setdart's bidding system indicates in the bid history if the last offer has not reached the reserve price set with the acronym NAPR (Not Reached Reserve Price), inviting the Bidders to continue bidding if they wish to win that lot. Only in this case, the system will admit that the same bidder exceeds his last offer in order to reach the reserve price and win the lot. Once the duration of the auction is over, when the timer indicates "This auction has ended", it will be immediately informed whether or not the lot has been awarded.
Payment Methods:
To settle your lots, you can pay by credit / debit card through our website. Banco Sabadell offers you the Virtual POS, an online payment gateway that allows you to pay your batches with a card, through the internet, in an easy and, above all, safe way.

https://setdart.com is an online auction whose purpose is to sell art, antiques, collectibles and other artistic goods of a similar nature that are entrusted to it for this purpose.
Setdart Subastas and its fiscal figure Setdart Online SL act as mediators between the owner and the buyer of each lot.
To be able to bid on Setdart, it is necessary to register as a user, after reading these Conditions and the Privacy Policy. Enter the link on the Home page "Register as a user" and correctly fill in the boxes with your data. The form will ask you to enter a "user code" and a "password".

Once the correct form has been sent, Setdart will accept you as a user and will send you the approval, via email, so that you can act as a bidder. Registering as a user entitles you to receive the Newsletter that Setdart sends weekly to its users, via email, with the most outstanding news.
Once your user registration has been approved by Setdart, you can operate on the page as a bidder.
When bidding Setdart presents you with several alternatives. The first is to bid directly for the next amount the auction goes for; When entering the lot, mark the quantity you want to bid on. When accepting the bid, a proforma appears on the screen with the total amount that would be paid if the lot is awarded, including the commission and VAT on the commission. Only when you accept this proforma, will your bid enter the lot. Remember that to place a bid you must always be logged in as a user. You can also make the EXPRESS BID, in which you will bid directly for the higher amount without opening the information window.
Another option is SELF-BID: You have the possibility to bid for a higher amount, using the drop-down. In the latter case, the AutoBid system will be activated. The AutoBid is an automatic bidding system in which the system itself will enter your bid, revealing the immediately subsequent bid and will in turn save the highest bid you have made. This will not enter the auction unless another user exceeds it. Ultimately, the SELF-BID will allow you to record your maximum amount that will only be activated in the event that you are exceeded or that the piece has not reached its reserve price.
When entering the lot, mark the quantity you want to bid on. When accepting the bid, a proforma appears on the screen with the total amount that would be paid if the lot is awarded, including the commission and VAT on the commission. Only when you accept this proforma, will your bid enter the lot. Remember that to place a bid you must always be logged in as a user.
The lots presented at auction have a Reserve Price, that is, a confidential minimum price agreed between the consignor or transferor-seller and Setdart. If at the end of the auction the last bid does not reach this reserve price, the lot is not awarded and therefore it is not sold. Before the auction ends, the transferor-seller can modify the reserve price downwards in order to accept or move closer to the last existing offer at that time. Therefore, the agreed reserve price may be downward with the consent of the consignee.
Each lot is marked with a Low Estimate and a High Estimate, which represents the opinion of Setdart's experts about the range at which a lot is likely to sell at auction. Estimates are based on examining the lot or item and comparing market prices for comparable works. These estimates provide buyers with a prior indication of value and are generally a basis for setting the reserve price. The buyer can be sure that if he meets or exceeds the low estimate, he has reached the minimum price or reserve of the lot but this does not mean that the reserve price is equal to the low estimate as the reserve price may be lower.
In Setdart there are also lots at Free Price, this means that there is no reserve price and, therefore, they are sold whenever there is a bid, whatever its value.
It is strictly forbidden for any transferor / seller to make, personally or through third parties, bids on their own lots with the aim of increasing the award values of the lots and not with the intention of buying. In the event that such an action is detected, Setdart reserves the right to immediately cancel the user accounts used for this purpose, and to withdraw the auction lots from the transferor seller.
In the event that a lot has not reached the reserve price, before the auction time ends, Setdart's bidding system indicates in the bid history "Reserve Price Not Reached" and the auction time automatically increases. 3 minutes so that potential buyers can continue bidding if they want to win that lot. Only in this case, the system will admit that the same bidder exceeds his last offer in order to reach the reserve price and win the lot. Once the duration of the auction is over, when the timer indicates "This auction has ended", the user will be able to see if the lot has not reached the reserve price and, therefore, the lot has not been awarded, or if On the contrary, the lot has been awarded and sold.
If you are the winner of a lot, you will receive an e-mail informing you of the award once the day's auctions are over. During the next day you will receive the budget for your settlement. The settlement period is seven working days.

Indirect taxation on purchases from individuals.
Acquisitions made to individuals at auction, is an operation subject to the Tax on Patrimonial Transmissions, a tax assigned to the Autonomous Communities so it will have to be in accordance with their particular regulations, being the taxpayer the purchaser, who must carry out the self-assessment the fee resulting from applying the tax rate in force on the date of the acquisition, in the Autonomous Community where it has its fiscal domicile, using the form provided for this purpose, normally the 600 form.
The operations in which Setdart Auctions intervenes are subject to the provisions of Spanish Law and, more specifically, to the stipulations that regulate mediation and deposit contracts.
Once the lot has been awarded, a quote will be sent to you indicating the auction price and additional costs. An 24% commission is added to the auction price of the piece. This commission is subject to VAT, and therefore, the corresponding VAT of 21% must be added. If you need transportation, it will also be budgeted depending on the nature of the lot and the destination. Transportation costs are also subject to VAT.
Delivery times:
Once the lot has been settled, Setdart will proceed to carry out the arrangements for packaging and transporting the piece. Note that all the pieces that have more than 100 years are required of an export permit from the Spanish Ministry of Culture. If the lot goes outside the EU, there will be a cost for such certificate. Kindly note you can check all this information in the Spanish Miistry of Culture website. This period may vary depending on the availability of the part in our facilities, if it must be collected at the place of deposit or if the part requires special packaging or adjustments. If the client requests a grouping of lots to lower transport costs, we will wait to receive the last lot to make the shipment, although the payment deadlines will have to be met.
1. Pick up at the Setdart facilities:
You can collect your lots yourself at our facilities in Barcelona, once you have been informed by email that the lots are available. In the event that you are not the one who collects the awarded lot or lots, you must give an authorization to the person who is going to do it by means of an authorization document or via e-mail.

Setdart.com usually works with MRW as a transport and courier service. Setdart sends you an e-mail indicating that your shipment is ready. The collections are normally made at 18:30 in the afternoon, except in cases of urgent shipments. Shipping through MRW is usually received within 24-48 hours.

Additional insurance:
If you wish to take out additional insurance to cover the total amount of the lot, you can contact us and we will carry out the management with an insurance company specialized in objects of art and / or jewelry.
Prices:
In Setdart we have preferred to adopt the auction system with Estimate and Reserve Price since it seems to us a more flexible system and that allows a greater rapprochement and understanding between Offer and Demand.
As already indicated in the Conditions of sale, most pieces at auction have a reserve price, that is, a confidential minimum price agreed between the transferor-seller and Setdart.com. If at the end of the auction the last bid does not reach this reserve price, the lot is not awarded and therefore it is not sold. Before the auction ends, the transferor-seller can modify the reserve price downwards in order to accept or move closer to the last existing offer at that time. Thus, the agreed reserve price is movable downward. In Setdart there are also lots at Free Price, this means that there is no reserve price and, therefore, they are sold whenever there is a bid, whatever its value.
Each lot is marked with a low estimate and a high estimate, which represents the opinion of Setdart's experts about the range at which a lot may be sold at auction. Estimates are based on examining the lot or item and comparing market prices for comparable works. These estimates provide buyers with a prior indication of value and are generally a basis for setting the reserve price. The buyer can be sure that if he meets or exceeds the low estimate, he has reached the minimum price or reserve of the lot but this does not mean that the reserve price is equal to the low estimate as the reserve price may be lower.
During the last hour of the auction process for each lot, Setdart's bidding system indicates in the bid history if the last offer has not reached the reserve price set with the acronym NAPR (Not Reached Reserve Price), inviting the Bidders to continue bidding if they wish to win that lot. Only in this case, the system will admit that the same bidder exceeds his last offer in order to reach the reserve price and win the lot. Once the duration of the auction is over, when the timer indicates "This auction has ended", it will be immediately informed whether or not the lot has been awarded.
Payment Methods:
To settle your lots, you can pay by credit / debit card through our website. Banco Sabadell offers you the Virtual POS, an online payment gateway that allows you to pay your batches with a card, through the internet, in an easy and, above all, safe way.
