Lindbergh ceaselessly turned to black and white to signify his search for authenticity in the faces he brought to light. Alaïa drew on the monochrome of timeless clothes to create veritable sculptures for the body. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this book, the unique dialogue between the two artists is immortalized in print. Illustrating their community of spirit, its images are a celebration of their artistic partnership and testament to their history-making achievements in photography and fashion. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite their geographically opposed origins, Lindbergh and Alaïa pursued similar horizons. At the same time as Lindberghs reputation in Germany was growing thanks to his work in Stern magazine, and he set up his studio in Paris in 1978, Alaïa was the couturier shrouded in discretion whose sophisticated techniques were a treasured secret amongst the most important clients of Haute Couture. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlaïa became the architect of bodies, revealing and unveiling them, while Lindbergh distinguished them by shining a light on their soul and personality. Step by step, they became the creators that dominated their respective disciplines. Both rejected any artifice that distracted from their true subject, and it is with great ease that they came together for a number of powerful collaborations. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShared inspirations and aesthetic values are visible throughout their work. A beach in Le Touquet and the streets of old Paris reference a mutual love of black and white cinema and vast panoramas. The backdrop of an engine room illustrates the memory of an industrial German landscape for one and references the inordinate pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1476g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 245 x 438 x 27 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783836586559                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103552205050,"sku":"9783836586559","price":42.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/peter-lindbergh-azzedine-alaia","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
