Мода, гламур

Fashion and portrait photographer Sheila Metzner presents her life’s work, including her intimate family portraits in 1960s Woodstock, fashion editorials, nudes, and sacred landscapes.

This exquisite volume presents more than 300 photographs accompanied by the groundbreaking artist’s enchanting stories of the inspirations behind her critically acclaimed work. The first female art director at Doyle Dane Bernbach advertising agency in the 1960s, Sheila Metzner became a photographer while raising five children. In 1978, one of Metzner’s portraits became the hit of a controversial exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art; gallery shows and assignments from Alexander Liberman at Vogue soon followed. At a time when Avedon, Penn, and Piel commandeered its pages, Metzner became the first female photographer to receive steady work from Vogue. Always pushing artistic boundaries, Metzner’s distinctive photographic aesthetic soon positioned her as a contemporary master not only in fashion photography but also in fine art, portraiture, still life, and landscape.

With memoir-like vignettes that accompany her photos, this book is a deeply personal look at the artist’s career as a peer to fashion and film luminaries such as Diane Arbus and Richard Avedon. Featuring her renowned fashion editorials and acclaimed fine-art photography, this volume will appeal to both fashion and photography lovers.

One of the most famous and popular photographers of his time, Jeanloup Sieff photographed some of the most beautiful women and men of his era.

This wide-ranging collection of his work captures some of Jeanloup Sieff’s most famous photographs spanning a career of nearly 40 years. These nudes and fashion shots portray more than beautiful bodies draped, or not, with beautiful clothes; Sieff’s personal interest in whatever lay before his camera, and his continually evolving style, render these photographs pieces of art. Whether his assignment was for »Glamour«, »Vogue«, or »Harper’s Bazaar«; whether his subject was Yves Montand, Rudolf Nureyev, Twiggy, or Catherine Deneuve, Sieff was never afraid to take chances with location, equipment, lighting, or convention. Rounding out this exciting monograph are texts from his favorite models as well as essays by Frank Horvarth and »Purple Magazine’s« editor Olivier Zahm.

This unprecedented volume documents the revolutionary work of African American fashion designer Stephen Burrows — celebrating some of the most innovative and vibrant years in American Fashion.

In the late 1960s, New York was the epicenter of creative vitality and artistic expression, when, as Phyllis Magidson writes in this book’s introduction, “Clothing became a masquerade, Central Park’s Bethesda Fountain a costume party, weekends a perpetual Halloween.” This was the New York City that Stephen Burrows embraced as his own, and it would inspire him to create clothes that would help revolutionize American Fashion and further solidify its credibility abroad.

This unprecedented volume documents Burrows’ creative output during the formative and at once incendiary years of 1968 to 1983. Each of the book’s four essays offers a unique perspective into the work of an artist at the height of his creative powers: Daniela Morera presents a perspective from abroad focusing on a new kind of femininity characterized by the freedom of Burrows’ clothes — light and fluid fabrics and an instinctive sense of color, inspired by the music and dance culture of the ’70s and ’80s; Glenn O’Brien explores the reciprocity between Burrows’ designs and the New York City art scene, partying with Warhol and the Studio 54-going elite; how Burrows got from Newark to Fifth Avenue, and from Fifth Avenue to Seventh, is the subject of Laird Persson’s essay; while Magidson’s introduction is a vivid depiction of the renegade clothing environment of the New York City of the late 1960s, that is, the creative landscape in which Burrows began his career. Richly illustrated with effusive photographs and many never-before-seen drawings, the book also includes a rare interview between Burrows and Morera.

This first full-career monograph, featuring two decades of iconic fashion and celebrity editorial photographs, reveals the enormous influence and impact that Richardson has made on contemporary style, culture, and photography. 

Since Terry Richardson first rose to prominence in the 1990s, he was shocked and intrigued the world with his singular view and signature style of bold lighting, hypersexualized styling, and striking, off-kilter glamour. From glossy, high-end fashion photographs to raw in-studio portraits, Richardson’s work has had an unmistakable impact on contemporary visual culture. 

This much-anticipated monograph is the first to cover Richardson’s complete career to date. It chronicles more than twenty years of photographs, advertising campaigns, and editorial work, revealing the evolution of Richardson’s style, an unexpected mix of glamour and rawness. 

This two-volume set, which is separated into Richardson’s fashion photography and celebrity portraiture, features more than 600 photographs and includes early, rarely seen magazine work from now-defunct publications; iconic and influential work for magazines such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, The Face, i-D, Vice, and Interview; advertising work for brands such as Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent, Chloé, and A.P.C.; and very intimate studio portraits. 

This compilation is an intriguing look at the mark Richardson’s work has made on fashion, photography, and pop culture, and it captures his edgy, provocative style in a book that is as unusual and unforgettable as the photographer himself.

This dazzling volume collects some of the most interesting emerging photographers working in the field of fashion, showing how they navigate the delicate balance between art and commerce.

The interaction between photography and fashion has always been compelling—how can artists balance commercial viability against their own creative vision? In this collection of cutting-edge fashion photography, full-page color and black-and white photographs represent an incredible range of styles and techniques—from Jeff Burton’s lush Hollywood-style scenarios and Roe Etheridge’s classically styled portraits to Marilyn Minter’s messy, makeup-smudged conceptions of beauty and Viviane Sassen’s gorgeous African shots. As the notion of the “fashion photographer” becomes less distinct, the industry is benefitting from the incredible talents of artists whose influence leads the genre into a multitude of surprising, often shocking, directions. The photographers featured in this exciting collection represent a cutting-edge trend in all its diversity.

Astonishing, richly spontaneous, and almost entirely unpublished images of the Beatles historic first trip to the United States, as chronicled by an award-winning photographer given unique access to their tour. 

Published to coincide with the fiftieth anniversary of the Beatles first visit the United States, this rare and mostly unseen collection of photographs marks the beginning of the British Invasion. In February 1964, photographer Bill Eppridge was on assignment for Life magazine to cover the band s arrival at JFK airport. He was then invited to continue shooting in their room at the Plaza Hotel and during the days that followed, notably at the Ed Sullivan Show rehearsal and historic performance; in Central Park; on a train ride to Washington, D.C., for the concert at the Washington Coliseum; at the British embassy; and at their renowned performance at Carnegie Hall. 

The book is an intimate fly-on-the-wall account of a visit that introduced the Beatles to America and changed the course of music, internationalizing the industry and opening the door for other artists to achieve global success.

- A striking photography tome from Federico Pignatelli della Leonessa, owner of the iconic Pier 59 Studios, often called the “Hollywood of Photography.”
- Dramatic and sensual images celebrating the female form set against the romantic and sublime backdrop of the J. Paul Getty villa outside of Rome, Italy.
- A unique fashion and erotic photography book that showcases the classic and modern elements of photography with images from the established Hasselblad digital camera as well as state-of-the-art digital video technology of the Red 6K Dragon.

As the curious mind will attest, it is an ethereal thrill to discover, revere, and regale the sinuous, striking feminine form. This visual narrative is celebrated here in this special compendium, The Great Beauty. These striking images fully embrace the allure and infinite intrigue of womankind — a daring, intoxicating ode to their esoteric and erotic narcissism. A cast of 11 chosen models and the accompanying production crew made the trek to Ladispoli, Italy, to the spectacular Paul Getty Villa. This iconic edifice has stood tall along the Sea of Rome since 1640 and, where, after six long days and nights in splendid, idyllic isolation, in cold and adverse conditions in November 2014, this creative endeavor came to life. These images came to form by tapping into both the classic and modern elements of photography, as photographer Federico Pignatelli della Leonessa not only harnessed the conventional, traditional use of the classic Hasselblad digital camera, but he also fully embraced post-millennial digital video technology in the form of “The Dragon,” which offers the highest-resolution that exists.

Federico Pignatelli della Leonessa is the founder, owner, and President of the world’s largest and most acclaimed photo studio complex, Pier 59 Studios, in New York City. Born in Rome, he is also a passionate collector of artistic photography and a photographer in his own right. Mr. Pignatelli is also the founder and President of Art and Fashion Group (AFG), a holding company providing full services to the advertising/fashion industry, including talent representation and production.

Julie Zerbo пишет:

To coincide with the release of his book, Little Black Jacket: Chanel's Classic Revisited, Karl Lagerfeld is putting the pages of the book on display. In late March, the exhibit opened in Tokyo. Then for eight days, the exhibit was housed at New York’s Swiss Institute. Its next destination is Taipei, China, and after that, even more, cities, which have not yet been announced. The book features 113 images of industry tastemakers from Coco Chanel herself, Anna Wintour, Yoko Ono, Daphne Guinness, designer Olivier Theyskens, wild child model Alice Dellal, models Aymeline Valade and Mariacarla Boscono, and more. All of the subjects wore similar iconic black Chanel jackets but were styled by ex-editor in chief of French Vogue, Carine Roitfeld, to reflect their own personalities. For instance: Alice Dellal, wore her jacket under a studded leather vest; designer, Alexander Wang, wore his in addition to his usual all-black ensemble; Daphne Guinness wore hers while dripping in diamonds; Jane Birkin wore hers while holding, what else? An Hermes Birkin bag.

Made in India. The Sartorialist’s portrait of the country’s unique style and beauty

Scott Schuman, a.k.a. The Sartorialist, has been travelling to India for over a decade to capture its wildly original beauty in markets, music festivals, city streets, and cricket fields, and across cities like Delhi, Jaipur, Chennai, and Mumbai. The result gathers all the unique qualities that have brought him worldwide renown: a photojournalist’s eye, a humanist’s empathy, and a fashion aficionado’s appreciation for design.

An intoxicating mix of colour, pattern, and texture, The Sartorialist: India is a photographic tribute to the country’s diversity and splendour. Famed American photographer and blogger Scott Schuman journeyed to India many times to capture its wildly idiosyncratic styles, whether on the streets, in markets, on the cricket fields, or at residences in cities like Delhi, Jaipur, Pushkar, and Mumbai.

Schuman’s affinity for his subjects is evident, and he celebrates people of all ages and from all walks of life, from ravers, transgender subjects, wrestlers, surfers, grandfathers, and fashionistas to children and labourers. He also shines a light on the new India as much as on the time-honoured. The casually chic layering of textiles, the enduring prevalence of traditional attire, and India’s pure physical beauty all add up to a richly satisfying visual and cultural experience. The images are also illuminated by an introduction by the acclaimed fashion writer Bandana Tewari.

This vibrant monograph is Schuman’s first for TASCHEN, and it showcases all the unique qualities that have brought him worldwide renown: a photojournalist’s eye for a decisive moment, a humanist’s sense of empathy, and a fashion aficionado’s appreciation for design.

The photographer:

Based in New York City, Scott Schuman had worked in fashion marketing and branding when, in the early 2000s, he began casually photographing stylish people he encountered on the street and posting the images to a blog he called The Sartorialist. Schuman quickly garnered an avid following, and went on to shoot campaigns for Gap, Verizon, Nespresso, DKNY Jeans, Absolut, and Burberry. His work resides in the permanent collections of the Victoria & Albert Museum and the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography.

Vanity Fair parties have become a legend of their own. Larry Fink, famous for a keen, uniquely sensual documentary eye, has been the official photographer of these events. His look is clear and honestly searing; his flashlight is married to the instant in devilishly expressive ways. He shows the main celebrities of the glamorous movie world anxiously at leisure.

Die Oscar-Partys von Vanity Fair sind in den letzten zehn Jahren selbst zur Legende geworden. Diese Gipfeltreffen der größten Hollywoodstars sind das ultimative Stelldichein der Schönen, Berühmten, Glamourösen und Reichen. Larry Fink, berühmt für sein scharfes, lustvoll-dokumentarisches Auge ist seit zehn Jahren offizieller Vanity Fair-Photograph der Veranstaltung. Sein Blick auf Superstars und ihre Entourage steht in starkem Kontrast zu allem, was wir vom offiziellen Hollywood kennen und erwarten: Er ist klar und unerbittlich. Und sein Blitzlicht verbündet sich in diabolisch aufschlussreicher Weise mit dem viel zitierten Augenblick. Seine Bilder halten die Atmosphäre der Partys fest, die an Soireen an einem königlichen Hof erinnern. Mit seinem sinnlichen und intuitiven Auge zeigt uns Larry Fink die wichtigsten Stars der glamourösen Filmwelt in krampfhaft guter Laune.
