Avant-garde fashion photographer Helmut Newton will be buried in his hometown Berlin near the grave of the late screen siren Marlene Dietrich, his widow said. June Newton told a news conference that she liked the cemetery in the Schöneberg district in the west of the capital where Dietrich was laid to rest in 1992, but had set no date for his burial. Newton died in January at the age of 83 when he lost control of the car he was driving and crashed into a wall outside the exclusive Chateau Marmont hotel in Los Angeles, where he spent his winters.
A collection of more than 1,000 works by Newton and his wife are due to be put on display June 4 in a former art library near the main train station and zoo in western Berlin. The library was one of the last Berlin buildings Newton saw on his flight from the Nazis. The first exhibit will include an image June took of her husband on his deathbed. A further room is to include personal objects of the late photographer, possibly including a blue Jeep dubbed the "Newtonmobile" owned by the car fanatic.
