Description
36 unnumbered sheets (72 unnumbered pages) : portraits (some color) ; 28 cm + 1 case (34 x 27 x 2 cm), Title from inside case. Unbound photographs, prints, and prose, printed on papers of varying color and texture, laid in a stiff cardboard case with the cut-out shape of a face on the cover and a foam rim (2 cm in height) on the inside; secured with an elastic band. "We envisioned 'Faces' as an album of one hundred portraits. The die-cut cookie-cutter technique we love so much came into full play and enabled Mario Testino, Cecilia Dean, and everyone else in the issue to claim, "My face is on the cover." Inside, Raymond Meier, who is known for stunning still lifes, created a face using a rock, a shell, and a paper clip and artist Andres Serrano contributed an image from his Morgue series. Portraits by Mats Gustafson and Ruben Toledo of women such as Liz Tilberis, Grace Coddington, and Vivienne Westwood remain some of the lasting favorites. Other contributors to this issue included Martin Margiela, Ann Demeulemeester, David Seidner, Stephane Sednaoui, Steven Klein, and Lady Bunny"--Publisher's description. Library has copy no. 6.
