I know it’s old news but I wanted to share with you this beautiful book about one of my fav photographers Guy Bourdin which I’ve already featured several times in the past whether because he inspired Madonna for her video “Hollywood” or simply because of his sharp aesthetics.
Bourdin went on to become one of the most celebrated fashion photographers mixing extreme glamour with weird scenes which makes his oeuvre fascinating. The book, In Between (Steidl, $58), offers an engaging retrospective of his work. The 272 page tome offers 400 carefully selected photographs that span Bourdin’s oeuvre from 1955 to 1989. The theme of the book is centered on the photographer’s signature achievement – the use of the magazine spread that allowed him to create large, striking images…
I totally recommend it…
