EMBODYING PASOLINI book

by Tilda Swinton and Olivier Saillard at RIZZOLI Inc.
In the context of my project, THE NEW BLACK, I followed my dear friend Tilda Swinton in Paris in September 2012. She was the main character in Olivier Sailard´s performance, IMPOSSIBLE WARDROBE, which took place at Palais Tokyo.
The performance turned out to be so tremendous and well-received that Olivier and Tilda decided to do further performances together.
Olivier liked my images so much of IMPOSSIBLE WARDROBE, that he asked me to do a book with those. Three years and two further performances later, this beautiful book published by RIZZOLI saw the light of birth.
The books show 89 black/white images of mine, while 175 photos in total. The artist Katerine Jebb, who originally introduced Tilda and Olivier, and the photographer Vincent Lappartient put in their positions color.
