Guy Bourdin

Presents some of the best work of the world's greatest photographers. The perfect primer on the provocative fashion photographer Guy Bourdin. Guy Bourdin (1928–1991) was a fashion photographer whose talent and strength of vision were apparent even in his earliest works. He shared Helmut Newton’s taste for controversy and stylization, but Bourdin’s formal daring and the narrative power of his images exceeded the bounds of conventional advertising photography. Shattering expectations and questioning boundaries, he set the stage for a new kind of fashion photography. This title in Thames & Hudson's renowned Photofile series features an introduction by Sarah Moon and 64 of Bourdin's best photographs. The Photofile Series Photofile brings together the best work of the world’s greatest photographers in an attractive, accessible, pocket-sized format. Handsome and collectable, the books are printed to the highest standards. Each one contains over sixty full-page reproductions printed in superb duotone, together with a critical introduction and a full bibliography.
