In 2011, Taschen released a beautiful tome from photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, although beautiful, the price point of $1000 was a bit steep for even my tastes.Lucky for us art book whores – they are releasing an edited version for mass consumption in November 2013 for $70.If you don’t know Inez + Vinoodh, you should. Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin’s work has graced the walls and pages of some of the world’s finest galleries and fashion magazines. Their strength lies in creating imagery that seeks homes in both culturally elite and mainstream outlets effortlessly. They have become well known for their portraits of celebrities (love the one of Björk) and many fashion campaigns (notably, Givenchy). This book was done in collaboration with the art directors M/M (LOVE THEM). Check out the Inez+Vinoodh website for great video.
