Fashioning
Fiction in Photography since 1990 foto:
Juergen Teller (German, born 1964) Juergen
Teller for example drew on the narrative of everyday life rather than the world of fashion ideals to tell stories
that lend familiarity and authenticity to the
magazine page. For “The Clients,” an editorial made in 1999
for W magazine, Juergen Teller (German, b. 1964)
photographed some of haute couture’s most loyal patrons, such
as Vicomtesse Jacqueline de Ribes and Princess
Marie-Chantal of Greece, at the fashion designers’ Paris ateliers.
The photographs are straightforward, uncontrived, and devoid of the
elaborate styling and deliberate preparations typical of studio photographs.
The subjects are not models posing for a fashion photograph but women
who seem to have been caught in a random
moment. next>>> |
