They’re not your girls next door. Fashion and fetish in a female fantasyland

Ellen von Unwerth was a supermodel before the term was invented, so she knows a thing or two about photographing beautiful women. Now one of the world’s most original and successful fashion photographers, she pays homage to the world’s most delectable females in Fräulein. This celebration of our era’s sexiest female icons includes Claudia Schiffer, Kate Moss, Vanessa Paradis, Britney Spears, Eva Mendes, Lindsay Lohan, Dita von Teese, Adriana Lima, Carla Bruni, Eva Green, Christina Aguilera, Monica Bellucci and dozens more.

Switching effortlessly between color and immaculate black and white, von Unwerth’s photography revels in sexual intrigue, femininity, romance, fetishism, kitsch humor, decadence and sheer joie de vivre. Whether nude or in lingerie and a dazzling smile, her subjects are never objectified. Some flaunt personal fantasies; others are guarded, suggesting that we have stumbled into a secret world. Fashion and fantasy were never so enchantingly combined. These images were shot over the last 15 years and many are previously unpublished.

Establishing himself in the ’40s and ’50s as a leading magazine photographer, he joined the prestigious Magnum agency in 1953.

Containing over 500 pictures, this is a comprehensive survey of the work of photographer Elliott Erwitt. It features his famous images like Nikita Kruschev and Richard Nixon arguing in Moscow in 1959 and Marilyn Monroe with the cast of the movie "The Misfits", along with many more personal images of places, things, people and animals. Erwitt's unmistakable, often witty style gives us a snapshot of the famous and the ordinary, the strange and the mundane over a period of more than half a century. The foreword is written by Murray Sayle and there are chapter introductions by Charles Flowers. Both writers are personal friends and admirers of Erwitt. Broken into nine chapters with single word titles such as "Read", "Move", "Play" and "Tell", the images in each chapter relate to the title, sometimes literally, sometimes obliquely, sometimes punningly and often ambiguously - in keeping with Erwitt's playful style.

Альбом состоит из более 500 фотографий, более чем половина которых никогда не издавались прежде. Эллиот Эрвитт: простые снимки (Elliott Erwitt: Snaps) - уникальный и всесторонний обзор работы великого мастера. В книге можно увидеть самые разные его творения: от культовых фотографий, таких как спор Никиты Хрущева и Ричарда Никсона в Москве в 1959 и Мэрилин Монро на съемках фильма «Неприкаянные», до менее знаменитых фотографии, которые мастер делал в основном для себя: фотографии мест, вещей, людей и животных, которые понравились ему. Целая эпоха жизни Америки и мира представлена в этом альбоме сквозь призму остроумного взгляда этого мудрого и талантливого человека.

Книга состоит из девяти глав, каждая имеет название, состоящее всего лишь из одного глагола: Смотри, Двигайся, Играй, Читай, Отдыхай, Прикасайся, Говори, Показывай, Стой. Этим самым Elliot Erwitt говорит нам о том, что важно для него в искусстве фотографии: основные поступки, такие простые и необходимые, которые составляют нашу жизнь. И не фотографии в этом альбоме должны иллюстрировать слова, а слова поясняют значение каждой из фотографий. Слова - такие остроумные и двусмысленные, как и визуальные игры мастера.

Здесь собрано полтысячи фотографий самых разных собак: эрдельтерьеры, хайленд-терьеры, пудели, таксы...

Альбомчик делится на горизонтальные и вертикальные снимки - удобная и приятная мелочь - с указанием места и года.

Сэр Пэлем Грэнвил Вудхауз, который был большим поклонником Эллиота Эрвитта, пишет в небольшом вступительном слове к изданию: "Как же великолепны эти фотографии! Так и хочется на них смотреть. В его галерее нет ни одного «натурщика», который бы не растопил вам сердце".

"Meine Schüchternheit hat dazu beigetragen, dass ich Photograph wurde. In der High School stellte ich fest, dass die Kamera einen in Situationen bringt, wo man eigentlich nicht hingehört. Damals waren es die Abschlussbälle; heute sind es das Weiße Haus und die Hinterzimmer des Kreml ..." Elliott Erwitt, seit den 50er Jahren Magnum-Mitglied und zeitweise Präsident und Vizepräsident der legendären Agentur, wurde 1928 als Kind russischer Einwanderer in Paris geboren, wuchs in Mailand auf und emigrierte 1939 mit seinen Eltern in die USA. Wie alle Magnum-Photographen seiner Generation ist er sein Leben lang in der Welt zu Hause gewesen - und sein Leben lang "schüchtern" geblieben: ein Photograph, der den Ereignissen nicht nachjagt, sondern die Ereignisse auf sich zukommen lässt, abwartend, beobachtend, bereit für die großen und die kleinen Momente im Leben, die privaten und die offiziellen, die traurigen und komischen. Vor allem seine hintersinnigen, liebenswert ironischen Schnappschüsse haben ihn berühmt und weltweit populär gemacht. Unser 1997 erstmals erschienener Band, den er selbst zusammenstellte und den wir jetzt in 2. Auflage vorlegen, enthält die Ikonen seines reichen Lebenswerks - die offiziellen Arbeiten für Magnum und viele seiner personal exposures, jener "persönlichen" Bilder, die seinen Ruhm begründeten.

About the Photographer:

Born of Russian parents in Paris in 1928, the renowned photographer Elliot Erwitt arrived in the U.S. in the late 1930's and studied Photography in Los Angeles. He won recognition for his work in the 1940's and 1950's with the publication of photographs in Life Magazine and Collier's and in 1953, joined the prestigious Magnum photographic agency. The range of his subjects reflected his enormous talents - from the everyday reality of the post-war years to the glamour of Hollywood stars such as Humphrey Bogart and Marilyn Monroe to portraits of political leaders such as Nikita Kruschev. Erwitt later became a highly successful advertising photographer. In the 70's Erwitt refined his sense of irony, and in addition to comedy and film work, shot his landmark series of photographs of people and their dogs, memorably documenting the unique world shared by canine and human. Eliott Erwitt currently lives in New York City.

One of the leading photographers of his generation, Elliott Erwitt (b.1928) has been taking pictures since the late 1940s. A member of the prestigious Magnum agency since 1954, he has photographed all over the world and his images have been the subject of many books and exhibitions.

Containing over 500 pictures, over half of which have never been published before, Elliott Erwitt Snaps is a unique and comprehensive survey of his work. From famous images such as Nikita Khrushchev and Richard Nixon arguing in Moscow in 1959 and Marilyn Monroe with the cast of the movie The Misfits, to his many more personal images of places, things, people and animals, Erwitt's unmistakable, often witty, style gives us a snapshot of the famous and the ordinary, the strange and the mundane over a period of more than half a century, through the lens of one of the period's finest image-makers.

The book is arranged in nine chapters, each with a one-word title: Look, Move, Play, Read, Rest, Touch, Tell, Point, Stand. For Erwitt, whose photography is a study and celebration of life, these are the basic actions of life - the things people do. The photographs are not intended to illustrate the words, but the words act as a means of grouping and organizing, making broad connections and also playing with pun and ambiguity, in keeping with the visual games Erwitt plays.
