But his pictures also often resonate beyond their commercial origins, and so a book-length monograph of his oeuvre is as welcome as it is overdue. “Donkey Man and Other Stories” is a collection of his voluminous magazine commissions; portraits of family members, fauna and landscapes; and brief reminiscences both by and of Teller. Iconic photos of Kurt Cobain, Charlotte Rampling, Kate Moss, et al., sit side by side with almost human-seeming frogs (a recurring motif) and invariably phallic still lifes. Regardless of subject matter, jarring juxtapositions are the rule: snails and peaches; nude models prancing in the Louvre; a callipygian Kim Kardashian in stockings and heels scaling a sandpit.\" —NEW YORK TIMES\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The eccentric photographer, who plays Ping-Pong in his London studio, has a new book that combines provocative self-portraits and celebrity images.\" —WALL STREET JOURNAL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"It’s an opportune moment...for a critical reassessment of Teller’s work. Which is why the arrival of his first-ever collection of editorial photography couldn’t come at a better time. Donkey Man and Other Stories, Volume 1...acts as a kind of survey of three decades of Teller’s output, comprising editorials and shoots created for almost every major magazine. It includes some of the most recognizable of Teller’s images — a nude Kristen McMenamy smoking in 1996, Kim Kardashian perched perilously on a pile of rubble in 2015, Björk with her infant son in an Icelandic hot spring in 1993. But it affords space, too, to the lesser-known parts of his body of work, and spotlights the images that have been less heavily referenced.\" —HYPEBEAST\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"German photographer Juergen Teller rose to fame in the 1990s for his matter-of-fact editorial style. His candid images of models, celebrities, strangers and friends radiate with the complications of life: humor, death, ugliness, unremitting beauty. Now, it all comes neatly packaged in a new volume of his [works] by Rizzoli.\" —CULTURED MAG\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"if you couldn’t get enough of Juergen Teller’s off-kilter photoshoot of actor Steven Yeun and other celebrities for W magazine, you’ll love his latest book of photographs that includes never-before-seen outtakes from iconic shoots with Cindy Sherman, Marc Jacobs, Victoria Beckham, and more. The 608-page tome, which covers over 30 years of work, features wry and humorous annotations by and commentary from the master himself.\" —NEW YORK MAGAZINE","brand":"Rizzoli International Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49083708735831,"sku":"9780847870776","price":93.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780847870776.jpg?v=1725549785","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/juergen-teller-9780847870776","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
