Yves Saint Laurent - Icons of Fashion Design / Icons of Photography: Kompaktausgabe. Englische Ausgabe mit deutscher Textbeilage
Seller: artbook-service, Berlin, Germany
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neu -Saint Laurent war zweifellos der berühmteste und erfolgreichste Modedesigner unserer Zeit. Seit 1957 gab er, gerade einundzwanzigjährig, sein bejubeltes Debüt mit einer eigenen, für das Haus Dior entworfenen Kollektion. Von da an hat er das Phänomen Mode Jahr für Jahr in einzigartiger Weise geprägt und mit immer wieder neuen Ideen bereichert. Dieser Band ist eine Festschrift besonderer Art. Sie feiert in atemberaubenden Bildern den Siegeszug des YSL-Designs und die nicht weniger fulminante Entwicklung der Modefotografie. Saint Laurents berühmteste Kreationen vom Beginn seiner Karriere bis heute sind in Aufnahmen der besten Modefotografen der Welt versammelt. Richard Avedon, Horst P. Horst, Irving Penn, William Klein, Guy Bourdin, David Bailey, Helmut Newton, Lord Snowdon, David Seidner, Bruce Weber u.a. ließen sich von der unerschöpfliche scheinenden Kreativität des Pariser Modekönigs zu fotografischen Meisterleistungen inspirieren, die ihrerseits stilbildend wurden und Geschichte machten. Marguerite Duras verfasste das sehr poetische, sehr persönliche Vorwort, eine literarische Einstimmung auf das Faszinosum Saint Laurent. (Text engl., mit Textbeilage dt., franz.) 232 pp. Deutsch.
