Exhibit A - Guy Bourdin - 1st Edition, Jonathan Cape, 2001

About the Item

First Edition, published by Jonathan Cape, London, 2001 Exhibit A is a definitive look at the work and life of one of the most important visual artists of the 20th century. With early influences from surrealism, Guy Bourdin was one of the photographers who defined the 1970s with his singularly erotic, glamorous, and hard-edged photographs for Vogue and other publications and fashion houses. With implied narratives, sensuality and inventiveness, these images are as compelling and provocative today as when they were first taken. Hardback in publisher’s original dust jacket. Around 200 pages, colour illustrations throughout.

    Late Rembrandt by Jonathan Bikker. Published by Rijksmuseum Amsterdam, 2014. 1st English Ed with dust jacket. The city of Amsterdam celebrates its most famous artist with 40 paintings, 20 drawings and 30 prints.

His global reputation was eventually shaped by the late masterworks such as Self-Portrait with Two Circles (Kenwood House, London), the Family Portrait (Herzog Anton Ulrich-museum, Braunschweig), Jacob Blessing the Sons of Joseph (Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister...
