Taschen GmbH Peter Lindbergh. Dior
Book SynopsisPeter Lindbergh photographed DIOR’s most exceptional muses, Marion Cotillard and Charlize Theron among them, and signed campaigns for Lady Dior and J'Adore with his inimitable style. Throughout his career, the photographer was one of the House’s closest collaborators. This final book was an original co-creation that was close to the artist’s heart—and to ours. Seventy years of DIOR history projected against the effervescence of Times Square, New York: this was the concept behind Lindbergh’s project, extraordinary both in scope and dimension, for which DIOR, in an unusual move, allowed an unprecedented number of priceless garments to be taken from its vaults in Paris and shipped across the Atlantic. The result is electric. Amid the frenzy of Times Square, Alek Wek glows in the immaculate 1947 Bar suit, the storied ensemble that launched the House of DIOR. In snatches of street scenes, models Saskia de Brauw, Karen Elson, and Amber Valletta flit through crowds and scaffolding, are reflected in building façades, and draped in haute couture, from pieces hand-sewn by Christian Dior to more recent designs by Maria Grazia Chiuri. Lindbergh’s trademark monochrome and color photographs masterfully highlight the intricacies, silhouettes, and textures of each garment.Lindbergh himself is present in every aspect of this two-volume publication designed by his long-time collaborator and friend Juan Gatti. Volume one features 165 never-before-published images from the shoot, including an introduction by Martin Harrison. Volume two pays homage to Lindbergh’s profound relationship with the Parisian House by curating more than 100 of his photographs of DIOR creations, from haute couture to ready-to-wear, men’s and women’s, originally published in some of the world’s most prestigious magazines such as Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar. A breathtaking tribute to two pillars of fashion and photography and their timeless collaborations.Trade Review“Peter Lindbergh, renowned for his alternately cinematic and naturalistic portraits of models and screen sirens, aimed to demonstrate that there is beauty in age and, more than that, audacity.” * The New York Times *“Electric from start to finish, coffee-table books don't come much cooler than this.” * gq-magazine.co.uk *“Lindbergh. Dior is a testament to the photographer’s unique vision and a poignant reminder of his influence on fashion.” * dazeddigital.com *“A true slice of fashion life, Dior at its finest by the great Peter Lindbergh.” * Harper’s Bazaar *“… an homage to eternal elegance.” * Grazia *“Images that sing with emotion.” * Vogue.co.uk *“It’s as much an homage to the house as a retrospective of the enduring beauty of Lindbergh’s work.” * Financial Times *“The cycle of fashion photography turns again, and this unusual and edgy collection constitutes one of the rare triumphs of its recent history.” * Martin Harrison *
