Sofitel presents a unique photo exhibition, BB Forever – Brigitte Bardot, the legend, which will run throughout 2012 in four Sofitel Hotels in the United States: Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington and New York. Conceived in collaboration with journalist and writer Henri-Jean Servat, the exhibition traces the life of the famous French actress.
The honour of inaugurating the retrospective, dedicated to the internationally renowned actress, falls on Sofitel Los Angeles, situated in the cinema capital of the world. Rarely has any exhibition gathered so many photos of Brigitte Bardot — The exclusive collection of 30 photos, presented for the first time in the United States traces the career of the French artist, who became one of the leading figures of 20th century cinema and whose international reputation will this year earn her a tribute from the famous American network, TNC, at the Chinese Theater.
Through never-before-seen snapshots, visitors can admire the different facets of the actress, who throughout her career distinguished herself through her beauty, spontaneity and carefree spirit and whose personality led her to be regarded not only as a legend and iconic figure but also as the embodiment of women’s liberation.
Moreover, the actress represents elegance as well as the French culture that Sofitel holds so dear. Since its repositioning, Sofitel has strived to promote French heritage through events related to art, gastronomy, literature and music.
