Guy Bourdin’s Nature Magique

 

large_Guy_Bourdin_Nature_Magique_Book_01Guy Bourdin is one of the fashion photographers that changed the way we look at fashion photographer – so much so, that you will continue to see artists and photographers rip off his style and imagery. So why not become familiar with the source?

Nature Magique explores Guy’s fascination with nature (which is often overshadowed by his hyper sexual/ hyper asexual images). Available now in limited quantities through Jane & Jeremy. ‘Nature Magique’ is published to coincide with the exhibition ‘Avant-Garde’ at Fotografiska Museet in Stockholm, Sweden, which runs from November 27, 2015 to February 21, 2016.

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
