Gerry Badger - Marilyn by Magnum - 2012

Charming illustrated edition of this book dedicated to the photographic representation of Marilyn Monroe through the eyes of several Magnum Photos photographers, and more broadly to how a female figure who became a world icon can be interpreted, constructed and transformed by photography -

The book is interested in Marilyn Monroe not only as an actress and celebrity, but as an exceptional photographic subject whose image has been continuously shaped by cameras, photographers, studios, the media and public gaze -

Gerry Badger, writer, critic and historian of photography, organizes this reflection around a set of photographs taken by photographers associated with Magnum, allowing to confront different visions of Marilyn and to show that there is no single representation of the star -
