  • Tailoring the British Landscape: Tim Walker's Stage Designed Fashion
    Tailoring the British Landscape: Tim Walker’s Stage Designed Fashion Photographs Julie MORÈRE Université de Nantes Tailoring the British Landscape: Tim Walker’s Stage Designed Fashion Photographs Julie MORÈRE Université de Nantes CRINI, EA 1162 [email protected] Résumé Tim Walker est connu pour ses séries photographiques insolites très britanniques publiées dans Vogue ou Vanity Fair, et pour son absence d’intérêt pour les images de défilés de mode, ou les photos prises en studio (pour lesquelles il éprouve cependant une curiosité grandissante). En lieu et place de cela, il bouleverse l’ordre des intérieurs des grandes demeures britanniques, ou invente des mises en scènes extravagantes en extérieur, qu’il s’agisse d’un dîner bohémien suspendu dans les arbres, d’un squelette burtonien dans un champ de roses déclinant tous les tons de rouges, d’une soucoupe volante planant au-dessus d’une horde de chiens lancés à la poursuite d’un renard dans la campagne anglaise, ou d’une poupée géante déambulant dans les bois d’un Northumberland mystérieux. Les grands espaces du paysage anglais, des contrées insulaires de l’ouest au comté du Northumberland, jusqu’au nord, vers les Highlands écossais, sont le terrain de jeu du photographe, et lorsque l’extérieur n’est pas physiquement présent, il ressurgit par le truchement d’arbres, de ruisseaux, de petits lacs, de clairières ou de neige recréés artificiellement à l’intérieur, entre les murs des grandes demeures. Walker donne vie sans contraintes à ses visions, et utilise la photographie de mode comme outil pour explorer ses rêves et désirs fantaisistes.

  • 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.
