Summary
The Lindbergh lens
Unique fashion storytelling that first launched the supermodels
When German photographer Peter Lindbergh shot five young models in downtown New York City in 1989， he produced not only the iconic British Vogue January 1990 cover but also the birth certificate of the supermodels。 The image didn t just bring revered faces together for the first time; it marked the beginning of a new fashion era and a new understanding of female beauty。
Coinciding with his major retrospective at the Kunsthal in Rotterdam， the Netherlands， this book gathers more than 400 images from four decades of Lindbergh s photography to celebrate his unique and game-changing storytelling and the new romantic and narrative vision it brought to art and fashion。
Whether in striking single portraits or dramatic situations of figure and setting， we trace the photographer s cinematic inflections and his provocative play with female archetypes as subjects adopt the guise of dancers， actresses， heroines， and femmes fatales。 Raw and seductive at once， we see how Lindbergh s trademark monochrome pictures also redefined standards of beauty by emphasizing spirit and personality as much as looks， celebrating the elegance and sensuality of older women， and privileging natural and authentic beauty in an era of pervasive retouching。
In a testimony to Lindbergh s illustrious status in the fashion world， his images are contextualized by commentaries from collaborators such as Jean Paul Gaultier， Nicole Kidman， Grace Coddington， Cindy Crawford， and Anna Wintour， who chose Lindbergh to shoot her first US Vogue cover。 Their tributes explain what makes Lindbergh s images so unique and powerful。

Fantastic insight to fashion and portrait photography。 I wish there was way more text; there are only 5 pages of text out of the 500 page book。 But the pure artistry speaks for itself。 It will forever be a great influence in my own photography。 Easy 5 stars。

Дуже люблю Ліндберга， тому довго мріяла про фотокнигу。 На диво чудовий варіант для подарунку чи coffee table book。 Мені подобається брати її в руки і випадково переглядати знімки。 Вони дуже надихають своєю сучасністю。

»about art: you take things that look exactly the same， but the context is different and that makes it art - somebody sees something and it changes their perception。«»35mm is like a part of your body。 you talk and you take pictures; how people react to you and your camera， that’s what you can get on 35mm。 many photographers are fetishsts。 they are always talking about the camera and not about the pictures。 i have an old nikon。 it’s perfect。 don’t worry。 it’s not about the camera。«so ein schönes »about art: you take things that look exactly the same， but the context is different and that makes it art - somebody sees something and it changes their perception。«»35mm is like a part of your body。 you talk and you take pictures; how people react to you and your camera， that’s what you can get on 35mm。 many photographers are fetishsts。 they are always talking about the camera and not about the pictures。 i have an old nikon。 it’s perfect。 don’t worry。 it’s not about the camera。«so ein schönes buch über einen der begnadetsten künstler unserer zeit！ hochqualitative aufnahmen， glänzendes papier， nur mir leider etwas zu wenig infos über lindbergh selbst - hätte gerne noch mehr von seinen worten dagehabt， vor allem weil er eine sehr schöne art hat， sachen darzustellen und zu erklären。aber nichtsdestotrotz ist es sein geld absolut wert - super ästhetisch！ 。。。more

An absolutely amazing guide to all things Lindbergh。 Revelled the essay in the beginning。 After that， it's just one after another onslaught of amazing photos by die meister。 An absolutely amazing guide to all things Lindbergh。 Revelled the essay in the beginning。 After that， it's just one after another onslaught of amazing photos by die meister。 。。。more

This is a Huge book， that is really extraordinary to absorb。You pay attention to the framing， pose， dynamic range， contrast and location of lights - the technical details of a typical fashion photograph。 Then， you are drawn to the sheer beauty of these faces， plain or painted， blown up or propped。 Just when you are losing yourself in the freckles and skin tones， you are distracted by the light in your room reflecting on the thick semi-glossy page preventing you from taking it all in， ensuring th This is a Huge book， that is really extraordinary to absorb。You pay attention to the framing， pose， dynamic range， contrast and location of lights - the technical details of a typical fashion photograph。 Then， you are drawn to the sheer beauty of these faces， plain or painted， blown up or propped。 Just when you are losing yourself in the freckles and skin tones， you are distracted by the light in your room reflecting on the thick semi-glossy page preventing you from taking it all in， ensuring that you don't assume to glance through Peter Lindbergh's work。Each page demands voyeuristic and academic attention。 Peter Lindbergh himself is watching you study his art。 。。。more

Definitively the best book of Peter Lindbergh about fashion。Those black and white photographies are to die for。A MUST HAVE。

One of the few photo books read this year。 I’ve been away from photography for a long time。

"A Different View on Fashion Photography" is surprisingly brief in text。 The bulk of its mass （a heavy book that wears on the wrists and back after a short time） lies within the collection of photography by the subject of the artbook （Peter Lindbergh） and how his varying subjects - like supermodels Milla Jovovich and Noami Campbell - evolve through his lens as time passes。What text there is provides some insight into his philosophy on photography itself （the desire or naturalistic depictions of "A Different View on Fashion Photography" is surprisingly brief in text。 The bulk of its mass （a heavy book that wears on the wrists and back after a short time） lies within the collection of photography by the subject of the artbook （Peter Lindbergh） and how his varying subjects - like supermodels Milla Jovovich and Noami Campbell - evolve through his lens as time passes。What text there is provides some insight into his philosophy on photography itself （the desire or naturalistic depictions of models， the model as a person and not a living mannequin dolled up to the point of unreality） and how his interests changed as he desired to moved away from modeling and focus on his other interests。 It's a solid read and an even better photo-book。 I definitely recommend it to anyone with a vested or passing interest in photography。 。。。more
