  • Pirelli Calendar 2010 by Terry Richardson London
    Pirelli Calendar 2010 by Terry Richardson London, 19 November 2009 – The 2010 Pirelli Calendar, now in its 37th edition, was presented to the press and to guests and collectors from around the world, at its global premiere in London. The much-awaited appointment with ‘The Cal’, a cult object for over 40 years, was held this year at Old Billingsgate, the suggestive late 19th century building on the banks of the Thames, where from 1875 to 1982 it housed the capital city’s fish market. Following China, immortalized by Patrick Demarchelier in the 2008 edition, and Botswana shot by Peter Beard a year later, 2010 is the year of Brazil and of American photographer Terry Richardson, the celebrated “enfant terrible” known for his provocative and outrageous approach. In the 30 images that scan the months of 2010, Terry Richardson depicts a return to a playful, pure Eros. Through his lens he runs after fantasies and provokes, but with a simplicity that sculpts and captures the sunniest side of femininity. He portrays a woman who is captivating because she is natural, who plays with stereotypes in order to undo them, who makes irony the only veil she covers herself with. This is a return to the natural, authentic atmospheres and images of the ‘60s and ‘70s. It is a clear homage to the Calendar’s origins, a throwback to the first editions by Robert Freeman (1964), Brian Duffy (1965) and Harry Peccinotti (1968 and 1969). Terry Richardson, like his illustrious predecessors, has chosen a simple kind of photography, without retouching, where naturalness prevails over technique and becomes the key to removing artificial excesses in vogue today to reveal the true woman underneath.

  • Almudena Fernandez Formatted
    Almudena Fernandez International Model, Oceana Supporter Who could have predicted that 17-year-old Almudena Fernandez’s first trip to a modeling agency in Madrid would set in motion a series of events that years later resulted in her receiving an invitation to attend President Obama’s 2009 inauguration? Starting with a career in fashion defined by collaborations with the world’s most renowned de-signers, photographers, and media, and evolving into socially conscious partnerships with former Vice President Al Gore and other icons of global change, Almudena Fernandez is working to capture humanity’s imagination in exciting and impactful ways. After growing up in Madrid, Almudena began working in fashion, and soon began to grace the covers of GQ, Biba, Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, Elle, Vogue, and other prominent magazines. She has also been featured in Glamour and Harper’s Bazaar. Almudena eventually became the face of Cartier, L’Oreal, Revlon, Cover Girl, Clairol, Elizabeth Arden, Lacoste, Givenchy, and Hermes. She has rounded out her portfolio as one of the most in-demand models in the fashion industry through shoots with photographers such as Michael Thompson, David Bailey, Walter Chin, and Mario Testino. The more that Almudena traveled the world and developed her presence as one of the industry’s most preeminent international faces, the more she saw the need for awareness in the area of ecology and environmental change. In 2007, she began collaborating with other investors and visionaries to revitalize Madrid’s city center and to re-build the community through the use of sustainable materials and technologies.

Ich beginne bei A wie Anna, bei einer Frau, die weder in den bunten Blättern erscheint noch auf Briefmarken enden wird, also einer ganz normalen DI Italienerin. Anna ist meine Italienisch-Lehrerin. SSie kommt aus Sardinien, lebt in Frankfurt, geht langsam auf die 40 zu, hat einen Mann, der in einem Restaurant arbeitet, und zwei Kinder. Abends, wenn die Arbeit hinter ihr liegt, CUORE die Kinder schlafen, der Mann im Lokal ist, um halb neun am Mittwoch, arbeitet sie weiter. Wir, drei Männer und zwei Frauen, traktieren sie dann mit unserem grausamen deutschen Akzent und unserer Begriffsstutzigkeit. „Como?“ Anna reißt die Augen auf, immer wieder überrascht, dass man nicht mal „essere“ oder „avere“ konjugieren kann. Mal biegt sie sich vor Lachen, bis der Kopf fast auf die Tischkante stößt, mal wedelt sie mit der Handkante. Frank nennt sie immer „Franz“, es kommt ihr wohl deutscher vor. Dann erklärt sie die Dinge so klar, konkret und konzentriert, dass es mit dolce vita nichts mehr tun hat. Wenn die anderen an der Reihe sind, schaue ich an die Wand, auf die Familienfotos und die Poster mit dem blauen Wasser Sardiniens. Und nach den 60 Minuten macht sie einfach weiter.
