One of my favorite coffee table books of all time. Guy Bourdin's work straddles a fine line between art and exploitation (especially his cringe-worthy photos of young girls wearing makeup), and often his images force us to confront our feelings about violence, nudity, isolation, and death. But some of them are also just really beautiful. Most of his photos from fashion magazines (spanning the mid-50s through the late 70s) still look completely fresh and modern. I would DIE for those blue chiffon and gold polka-dot dresses.
I feel like we should somehow get those blue dresses and live in them forever...After we do the most amazeballs photoshoot ever.

ReplyDeleteThese images are hot. I showed my boyfriend, he liked the lightening bolt coming out of the nipple. We're really into bolts.
