Produkt-Beschreibung zu: How to Photograph Women

Ever since Karl Lagerfeld gave him his first digital camera, Olivier Zahm - the co-founder and editor-in-chief of the critically-acclaimed magazine Purple Fashion - has been taking pictures that he regularly publishes in the Night section of his magazine as well as on his website, Purple Diary. This book largely features Zahm's personal pictures from the past seven years including images of nightlife and parties, friends, girlfriends, sex, celebrities, landscape and architecture. His mostly black-and-white photos combine his favourite erotic references, such as the work of Nobuyoshi Araki, Helmut Newton, and Richard Kern with a typically nineties snapshot aesthetic which gives a feeling of intimacy and reality to his pictures. All images are credited and often commented on by Zahm, lending a direct, personal edge to this story.

Klappentext zu: How to Photograph Women

Ever since Karl Lagerfeld gave him his first digital camera, Olivier Zahm the co-founder and editor-in-chief of the
critically-acclaimed magazine Purple Fashion has been taking pictures that he regularly publishes in the Night section
of his magazine as well as on his website, Purple Diary. This book largely features Zahm s personal pictures from the
past seven years including images of nightlife and parties, friends, girlfriends, sex, celebrities, landscape and architecture.
His mostly black-and-white photos combine his favourite erotic references, such as the work of Nobuyoshi Araki, Helmut
Newton, and Richard Kern with a typically nineties snapshot aesthetic which gives a feeling of intimacy and reality to
his pictures. All images are credited and often commented on by Zahm, lending a direct, personal edge to this story.
Olivier Zahm worked as an art critic for Artforum, Flash Art, Art Press and Texte zur Kunst during the 1980s and early
1990s. He is a renowned curator and hasworked on over 150 exhibitions of contemporary art, for institutions including
the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. In 1992, Zahm founded Purple Prose
magazine (1992 1998) with Elein Fleiss, and the publication has created spin-offs such as Purple Fiction (1992
1998), Purple Sexe (1998 2001), Purple magazine (1998 2003), Purple Journal (2004 present), Purple Fashion
(1995 1998, 2004 present), and Purple Books, a publishing house. The realistic , sometimes dubbed anti-fashion
aesthetics of Purple was a reaction against the glamour of the eighties, and can be linked to the global counterculture
of that time, with the work of Juergen Teller, Terry Richardson, Wolfgang Tillmans, and Mario Sorrenti.
