內容簡介: |
Celebrities rule the modern world, and close behind them are
the paparazzi, fuelling the medias endless fascination with the
rich and famous, while they themselves keep a low profile, fading
chameleon-like into the background. Bruno Mouron and Pascal Rostain
are two respected photo-reporters, based in Paris but ready to go
anywhere in the world for a scoop. They began working together in
the late 1970s as contributors to the magazine "Paris Match", and
by 1986 they had set up a formal partnership, founding the agency
Sphinx. Over the decades, they have honed the instincts required to
catch the moment when a glance, a pose and a setting are most
perfectly matched, capturing movie stars and models, rock stars and
royalty. This book presents a selection of their best work from the
last 25 years. Packed with striking black-and-white images that
hark back to the golden age of photo-journalism, famous challenges
us to recognize, appreciate and celebrate a fresh frame of
reference through which great photography can be judged.
