Description
A collection of works by Gavin Bond, a British fashion photographer based in New York. It was published in conjunction with the exhibition held at the gallery Hamiltons in London from September to October 2022. This book is a visual history of fashion that gives you a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the fashion shows that represent the 90s.
The artist's first solo exhibition delves into the artist's archives and presents countless fashion 'moments'. In 2020, the artist, who rediscovered this huge collection of images during the lockdown due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, studied fashion at the prestigious school "Central Saint Martins" (commonly known as CSM). I remembered my young days. In 1988, the author entered CSM and worked with John Galliano, Alexander McQueen, Stella McCartney, Hussein Chalayan, Giles Deacon, He studied alongside some of the best known alumni of the school, including legendary stylist Katie Grand. As a fashion student, he was invited to London Fashion Week, where he was able to dive into the wild world of the backstage of fashion shows with his camera.
Gradually spotted by Marion Hume, the fashion editor of the British luxury newspaper The Independent , Hume became an early supporter of the author, glamorating behind the scenes for shows in London, Paris and Milan. I began to request that it be recorded on a regular basis. Also in March 1993, John Wolford hired the author to shoot backstage for Vivienne Westwood's show Anglomania . The artist once again shot backstage at Westwood's famous Spring/Summer '94 Café Society collection. Westwood, the punk queen-turned-British fashion star, montages the author's photos into promotional foldout posters that, as the author calls them, "wonderful business cards."
In order to capture behind-the-scenes scenes, the artist used simple techniques to shoot quickly and discreetly, using only natural light. The shallow depth of field captures the fleeting moments of the designers and the designs of Gucci, John Galliano, Karl Lagerfeld, Christian Lacroix and Valentino. (Valentino)” and “Versace (Versace)” was effective in capturing what was happening in front of me, such as the disorder of the dress when walking on the runway. To move fast, the author limited the camera's exposure and adjusted the lens aperture according to the distance. Since there are only 12 pictures on a roll of film, he recalls, he had to think about how to take all the pictures.
Written by Carla Bruni, Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington and Claudia Schiffer during a notable period in pop culture, fashion history and the heyday of supermodels. (Claudia Schiffer), Kate Moss, Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, and the impressive sisterhood that was born between them. I was able to record in style. With a unique insight into the exclusive world of high fashion, the author has published Vanity Fair , Vogue , Elle , Marie Claire , He has contributed to publications such as Rolling Stone . A regular contributor to British GQ magazine, the author has shot over 35 covers. Today, the author works in the world of entertainment photography, shooting marketing, publicity and campaigns for major film studios around the world.
The exhibition consists of a unique grid of approximately 50 gelatin silver prints, arranged to recreate the feeling of 'being there' backstage. The installation was presented alongside a selection of large-format editioned gelatin silver prints for the first time.
The book features a foreword by American model Christie Turlington, who graces the cover, and Philippe Garner, director of photography for auction houses Christie's and Sotheby's. Includes a preface by Comes with a poster.
