Description
|
|
|
|
Great photographers and celebrities come together in this collection of more than 200 iconic portraits. Art historian Paul Ardenne considers what it means to be photographed—to be taken hostage, in essence, by the photographic image. He explores questions of authenticity of the image, the value of portraiture, and the capacity for a portrait to create an illusion. Here are portraits by visionary photographers and artists like Diane Arbus, Constantin Brancusi, Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Gilbert & George, Nan Goldin, Robert Mappelthorpe, Man Ray, and William Wegman, capturing such subjects as Mao Tse-tung, Abraham Lincoln, Jacqueline Kennedy, Marcel Duchamp, Catherine Deneuve, Marilyn Monroe, and David Bowie.
