Peter Lindbergh und Azzedine Alaïa , den Fotografen und den Couturier, verband ihre gemeinsame Liebe zur Farbe Schwarz, die sie auf ihre ganz persönliche Weise interpretierten – in legendären Fotografien und in atemberaubenden Kleidern. Lindbergh favorisierte das Schwarz-Weiß, da es ihm bei seiner Suche nach Authentizität in den von ihm fotografierten Gesichtern entgegenkam. Alaïa bezog sich auf die Monochromie klassischer Kleider und kreierte wahre Körperskulpturen. Dieses Buch dokumentiert den einzigartigen Dialog zweier Künstler , die sich in einer außergewöhnlichen Geistesverwandtschaft und Partnerschaft nahestanden, und ist zugleich Zeugnis ihrer stilbildenden Beiträge zur Geschichte der Fotografie und Mode. Trotz ihrer geografisch unterschiedlichen Herkunft verfolgten Lindbergh und Alaïa ähnliche Ziele. Während Lindbergh dank seiner Arbeit für den Stern in Deutschland immer bekannter wurde und 1978 ein Atelier in Paris bezog, war Alaïa ein sehr diskret in Erscheinung tretender Couturier, dessen subtile Kreationen zu den bestgehüteten Geheimnissen der prominenten Kundinnen der Haute Couture gehörten. Im erotischen Wechselspiel von Verhüllen und Entblößen modellierte er den weiblichen Körper wie ein Bildhauer, während Lindbergh ihn zum Leuchten brachte, indem er die Seele und Persönlichkeit der Models festhielt. Beide lehnten Künstlichkeit ab, die vom wirklichen Thema ablenkt, und es war nur eine Frage der Zeit, bis sie für eine Reihe gemeinsamer Projekte zusammenkamen. Ähnliche Inspiration und ästhetische Prinzipien lassen sich in ihren Arbeiten in fast all ihren Arbeiten finden. Ein Strand in Le Touquet oder die alten Stadtviertel in Paris verweisen auf ihre gemeinsame Liebe zum Schwarz-Weiß-Film und zu weiten Panoramen. Für den einen ist die Kulisse eines Maschinenraums Erinnerung an eine deutsche Industrielandschaft, für den anderen verweist sie auf seine große Leidenschaft für funktionales Design und Architektur. Peter Lindbergh. Azzedine Alaïa ist ein beeindruckender Bildband in Schwarz und Weiß, der vor Aufrichtigkeit und Schönheit strahlt. Alaïas Kleider sind wie ein Podest für das Lächeln und die Augen der Frauen. Für Lindbergh zählt die Wahrhaftigkeit der Gesichtszüge seiner Models: Nadja Auermann, Mariacarla Boscono, Naomi Campbell, Anna Cleveland, Dilone, Lucy Dixon, Vanessa Duve, Helene Fischer, Pia Frithiof, Jade Jagger, Maria Johnson, Milla Jovovich, Lynne Koester, Ariane Koizumi, Yasmin Le Bon, Madonna, Kristen McMenamy, Tatjana Patitz, Linda Spierings, Tina Turner, Marie-Sophie Wilson, Lindsey Wixson. Dieses Buch ist der Begleitband zur Ausstellung Azzedine Alaïa, Peter Lindberg h in der Fondation Azzedine Alaïa, 18, Rue de la Verrerie, Paris, Frankreich. Mit Beiträgen von Fabrice Hergott , Direktor des Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, Paolo Roversi , Fotograf, und Olivier Saillard , Modehistoriker und Direktor der Fondation Azzedine Alaïa, Paris.

Ronnie Wood is one of the foremost rock guitarists in the world, but his artistic talents extend beyond music. Throughout his stellar musical career from The Birds to the Faces and the Rolling Stones, Ronnie has never lost his passion for painting, drawing and sculpture. Exuding the same irrepressible energy as Ronnie himself, Ronnie Wood: Artist is the first ever comprehensive collection of his paintings and other artworks, created to mark the occasion of his seventieth birthday. The bright, bold volume brings together the fruits of a lifetime in the arts, brimming with six decades of memorable and diverse work, from his art college portfolio (he studied alongside Pete Townshend) to the intimate work of his personal life today. Inside, a generous selection of his Stones work, including rare watercolours of Mick, Keith and Charlie backstage, meets acrylics of contemporaries Rod Stewart, Jeff Beck and Keith Moon. Portraits of formative jazz innovators Count Basie, Miles Davis and Billie Holiday sit alongside blues heroes Howlin’ Wolf, Muddy Waters and Big Bill Broonzy. Paintings of Hollywood’s elite – Paul Newman, James Dean and Marilyn Monroe – juxtapose real-time fashion sketches of Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell and deft pastel compositions from his residency at the Royal Ballet. The artist himself provides the captions and insights into the thought and motivation behind each piece. With an introduction by Emmanuel Guigon (director of the Museu Picasso, Barcelona, where Ronnie will be beginning a residency in 2018) and an afterword by none other than Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood: Artist exists where fine art and rock ’n’ roll collide. This extensive and eclectic collection offers unique insights into the entire world of Ronnie Wood, and, with close to 400 works, is a fitting testament to the artistic range and ambition of rock ’n’ roll’s most successful artist

A riotous, Fellini-esque memoir from the famous artist and fashion photographer whose work helped define the look of a generation. A Shot in the Dark includes nearly one hundred photos, spanning decades of D'Orazio's incomparable career. Whether or not you know his name, you know his work. As one of the top fashion photographers in the industry, Sante D'Orazio played a seminal role in shaping how we define what it is to be beautiful, cool, glamorous, and hot. The résumé of A-listers he has shot includes top supermodels--Helena Christensen, Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista, Kate Moss, Christy Turlington, and Naomi Campbell, among others--as well as a myriad of actors, artists, and athletes, including Pamela Anderson, Prince, Keith Richards, Axl Rose, Sophia Loren, Mickey Rourke, and Mike Tyson. In this intimate, riotous, rough-and-tumble memoir, D'Orazio writes of his many adventures and how he fought his way to the top while navigating a life of sex, drugs, hustlers, and panic attacks. But beneath the surface of glamour and glitz, we find surprising depth. D'Orazio informs his narrative with artful meditations on the tensions that have defined his career and life: between the sacred and the profane; the commercial demands of fashion photography versus his personal art and his true love of painting; the nature of light and the disabling darkness of mood swings; '80s glamour versus "heroin chic"; the mystic presence of Saint Padre Pio and the bacchanalia of Studio 54--from cocaine to Caravaggio. Along the way, the author weaves together a vivid story of the Italian neighborhood in Brooklyn where he grew up and, especially, of his overly dramatic mother. The author chronicles his deeply personal, often hilarious, and always entertaining journey as he comes to terms with how the pull of his mother affected his many relationships with women--and informs the bond he has formed with his own son. A Shot in the Dark is a shocking, sexy, and surprisingly revealing memoir that pulls you into the many frames of life.
