Description from the seller
GUY BOURDIN - ALISON GINGERAS, EXCLUSIVE PHOTOGRAPHS, 2011, PHAIDON, VERY GOOD
No reserve price auction!
A small but very condensed photography book in ultra-photogenic photographic matter by the great French photographer Guy Bourdin! An hypnotic and captivating book, majestic color photography, illustrated monograph of one of the great contemporary photographers! 2011 edition from Phaidon Press Limited, hardcover with a colored pictorial dust jacket, complete and in very good condition!
Guy Bourdin's fashion shoots were mysterious, hypnotic and surreal, revealing the true and troubling nature of desire. He demonstrated that, in the world of fashion, it is rarely the product itself that draws us. It is the image — a carefully staged mise-en-scène blending sexual fantasy, the quest for the unattainable, and a hint of danger — that stimulates the consumer's desire. Guy Bourdin, born Guy Louis Banarès on December 2, 1928 in Paris and who died in the same city on March 29, 1991, is a French painter and photographer of fashion and advertising.
As photogenic as Paolo Roversi, Mario Sorrenti, Helmut Newton, Saul Leiter or Patrick Demarchelier!
Very accomplished edition, with as the main contributor the exhibition curator and art critic Alison Gingeras!
