Book excerpt: Mario Testino turns his eye to sex in contemporary art for Visionaire Issue 46: UNCENSORED. Known for pushing the envelope on sex in his iconic fashion images and celebrity portraits, Mario Testino draws inspiration from artworks that challenge convention. For Visionaire 46 UNCENSORED, Testino curates sexually provocative and sometimes shocking pieces by artists including Ghada Amer, Cecily Brown, Marlene Dumas, Tracey Emin, Angus Fairhurst, Sarah Lucas, Vik Muniz, Thomas Ruff, Lisa Yuskavage and others. Customized tactile inserts enhance UNCENSORED's sensory viewing experience including latex, embroidery, embossing and a swatch of supermodel Gisele's bedsheets. The issue also contains an envelope with five original photographic prints of Mario Testino's own unpublished work. Due to its too-hot-to-handle contents, UNCENSORED comes with a discretionary warning: This issue of Visionaire contains graphic images of a sexual nature. -- Publisher's website.

Book excerpt: These photographs by Drew Barrymore reveal hearts found in everyday situations. "I have always loved hearts," writes acclaimed actress Drew Barrymore in the foreword to this heartwarming gift book. "The way that continuous line accomplishes the most extraordinary thing -- it conveys love." In Finding it in Everything, Barrymore shares the photographs she has taken of heart-shaped objects and patterns she has come across over the past ten years. Some are obvious and others barely discernible. A discarded straw wrapper, a hole in a T-shirt, a scallion in a bowl of miso soup -- seemingly everywhere she turns her lens a heart reveals itself. A very personal collection of images, many of them accompanied by brief captions that reflect on beauty in the everyday, Finding it in Everything is a delightful book from the beloved actress and director, who now adds photographer to her list of credentials.

Download or read book Visionaire No 58 Spirit written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Several years before issue 58 came to be, Alexander "Lee" McQueen came to the Visionaire office to discuss collaborating on an issue that ultimately never happened. One day, the staff was discussing a potential issue printed on seeded paper, and the next day, news came that McQueen, one of the most brilliant creative minds of our time, had passed away. The team took this as a sign and dedicated SPIRIT to him. The issue set out to commemorate McQueen's life and career by publishing the imagery that had defined it. From the iconic Nick Knight image of Devon Aoki with a pin through her forehead to the haunting Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin portrait of the designer himself, SPIRIT amassed photographs that, like McQueen and his revolutionary fashion, were completely unforgettable. Mario Sorrenti collaborated with fashion editor Camilla Nickerson producing a photo -- based on the sacrificial lamb -- that current Alexander McQueen creative director Sarah Burton describes as "incredibly moving" and "powerful yet heartbreakingly fragile." Printed onto pulp paper embedded with seeds, the issue could be planted to transform into a garden of wildflowers -- a statement about the transience of life and fashion that honored the designer's vision"--Publisher's description

Download or read book The Bible in Photography written by Sheona Beaumont and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-01-25 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sheona Beaumont addresses the untold story of biblical subjects in photography. She argues that stories, characters, and symbols from the Bible are found to pervade photographic practices and ideas, across the worlds of advertising and reportage, the book and the gallery, in theoretical discourse and in the words of photographers themselves. Beaumont engages interpretative tools from biblical reception studies, art history, and visual culture criticism in order to present four terms for describing photography's latent spirituality: the index, the icon, the tableau, and the vision. Throughout her journey she includes lively discussion of selected fine art photography dealing with the Bible in surprising ways, from images by William Henry Fox Talbot in the 19th century to David Mach in the 21st. Far from telling a secular story, photography and the conditions of its representations are exposed in theological depth.; Beaumont skillfully interweaves discussion of the images and theology, arguing for the dynamic and potent voice of the Bible in photography and enriching visual culture criticism with a renewed religious understanding.
