The Polaroid Diaries

TASCHEN | John Chilver | Bice Curiger | Dr. John Paul Stonard

This Art Edition book treats the viewer to a close encounter with Glenn Brown’s paintings, paint sculptures, and drawings, eye-deceiving renderings of brushstrokes from sources between sci-fi and the old masters.<ul><li>Bice Curiger (Swiss).</li><li>Dr John Paul Stonard (English).</li><li>John Chilver (English).</li><li>Hans Werner Holzwarth (German).</li><li>Köln: TASCHEN, 2023.</li><li>474 pages.</li><li>Hardcover in clamshell box.</li><li>Part of a numbered edition of 100 (No. 13–112) signed by Glenn Brown.</li><li>Accompanied by&nbsp;a three color woodblock and lithographic plate print&nbsp;Sizewell A, 2023, also signed by the artist.</li></ul> The main spirit that runs through Glenn Brown’s work is transformation. The motif may come from old master paintings, the color scheme from modernist ones, the mood might be set by a title that quotes from a pop song. Brown became famous (and sometimes infamous) for his unabashedly appropriative work in the early 1990s, a golden era for young British art. He rendered the thick brushstrokes of expressionist painters like Frank Auerbach or Karel Appel almost photo-realistically, carefully modeling their dashing gestures with a fine brush until his smooth surfaces deceived the viewer’s eye. Taking space fantasies from science-fiction paperbacks, he made epic history paintings out of tiny book illustrations. Brown turned to the old masters, updating their historical models with a contemporary understanding of paint’s materiality and a barbed sense of color. Following the artist’s development through the decades, we find his engagement with the medium deepening and branching out. Brown invents his own brushstrokes that take over the picture’s subject, unsettling viewers by their sickly hues. When he starts making sculptures from paint, he absurdly layers brushstrokes on top of each other until they become three-dimensional figures, sometimes growing from bases of historical bronze statuettes. Then he arranges his works in installations as an interplay of different media, or exhibits them in the collection of an art museum in a dialogue between his own paintings and the works that inspired them. In the mid-2010s, Brown stopped painting altogether to explore the medium of drawing, often creating work that reacts to vintage wooden frames he is collecting. Upon his return to painting, there is a newfound freedom of lines dancing and mingling, colors radiating from the core of Janus-like superimpositions of two counteracting motifs. This book has been conceived and realized in close collaboration with the artist, curating an overview of his work in unprecedented depth. All authors have worked with Brown before to now deliver an incisive portrait of the artist, an art-historical survey of his work and development, as well as essays on different artistic approaches and genres. Comments written by Brown especially for this edition discuss specific works and artistic choices. More than anything, it is the book’s large format that makes the eye-deceivingly smooth brushwork and exuberant lines come alive, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in every detail and share the artist’s contagious love of painting and paint.

Kishin Shinoyama

Kishin Shinoyama’s widely unseen portrait series of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, shot at Ono’s request for the cover of the couple’s 1980 album, Double Fantasy.<ul><li>Kishin Shinoyama (Japanese).</li><li>Köln: TASCHEN, 2014.</li><li>174 pages.</li><li>Hardcover.</li><li>Part of an Art Edition of 125 (No. 126–250).</li><li>Signed by Yoko Ono and Kishin Shinoyama.</li><li>Accompanied by an unframed pigment print on Hahnemühle PhotoRag paper, signed by Shinoyama.</li><li>Presented in a clothbound clamshell box.</li></ul> Renowned for his sensual, provocative images, Kishin Shinoyama is one of Japan’s most controversial and acclaimed artists, at once hailed by critics and charged for public indecency. His capacity for ease and intimacy is perhaps most poignantly expressed in his beautiful series of photographs of Yoko Ono and John Lennon, shot for the cover and promotion of the couple’s celebrated 1980 album, Double Fantasy, just three months before Lennon’s untimely death. Featuring many previously unseen images, the series resonates with a remarkable honesty, and immortalizes this iconic couple at a pivotal moment in their personal and creative relationship.

Tuttle describes his work as follows:&nbsp;“I make literary artifacts. They are designed to pull books down off the shelf and display them in the salon, gallery or home [...] I seek to find a perspective that shouts out a piece of the essence of the literary work. I try to put myself in the author's or character's mind to say something about the time it was written in; the attitude that is explored and expressed; the magic that makes it a work of art."

TASCHEN | Helmut Newton

Reissue of Newton's 1999 SUMO book in half the size with silver stand included.<ul><li>Helmut Newton (German).</li><li>Edited by June Newton (Australian).</li><li>Köln: Taschen, 2023.</li><li>464 pages.</li><li>Hardcover.</li><li>Limited edition of 10,000.</li><li>Includes a&nbsp;stainless-steel bookstand designed by Philippe Starck (French).</li></ul> Enduring the turbulent mid-20th century, Helmut Newton rose to become one of the most sought-after photographers in his five-decade-long career, creating iconic and provocative images.&nbsp;&nbsp;Born in Berlin in 1920, Newton was drawn to photography at the age of 12, apprenticing under the photographer Yva. When his family fled Nazi Germany in 1938, Newton brought two cameras which allowed him to work in Singapore as a photographer. After internment by British authorities sent him to a camp in Australia, he joined the army to fight in WWII and became a British citizen, changing his name from Neustädter to Newton.&nbsp;&nbsp;Newton founded his business in Melbourne and married June Browne (who later became a successful photographer using the pseudonym Alice Springs). Commissioned to illustrate fashion for an Australian supplement of&nbsp;Vogue, Newton won&nbsp;ongoing work for the famed magazine, leading him throughout Europe. Influenced by Alfred Hitchcock and French New Wave, he developed a distinctive cinematic style. His themes of erotica, confrontational nudes and S&amp;M earned him notoriety while cementing his place in photography’s history. In 2003, Newton and his wife established the Helmut Newton Foundation in Berlin, a cultural mecca that preserves his legacy with ongoing talks and exhibits.

After a showcase at NYC’s Gallery 303, he was hired as a photographer by Andy Warhol for&nbsp;Interview. This entry into the fashion world led to doing covers for&nbsp;GQ,&nbsp;Rolling Stone,&nbsp;Vanity Fair&nbsp;and&nbsp;Vogue. Pushing the boundaries of social commentary, his subversive shot of two sailors kissing for Diesel in 1995 made waves as the first homosexual kiss in an advertisement when “don’t ask, don’t tell” was mandated in the U.S. armed forces.&nbsp;&nbsp;Influenced by the likes of Caravaggio, Andy Warhol and Salvador Dalí, LaChapelle frequently stages imaginative tableaus with celebrities and models as religious stand-ins, merging his themes of paradise and materialism. His work is both luminescent and deliberately garish with well-known faces like Kim Kardashian and Madonna. As one of the most published photographers in the world, LaChapelle’s solo exhibits have ranged from LACMA to the National Portrait Gallery in D.C. and the Musée d’Orsay.&nbsp;
