1 box (36 unnumbered cards) : chiefly color illustrations ; 33 x 4 cm + Mask., Thirty-six (36) circular cards, printed on both sides, and 1 fabric mask, housed in a round box, 33 cm in diameter and 4 cm high. Mask designed by Hermés. "Fantasy is the subtext of every issue of Visionaire, but with this issue we pushed the boundaries to the fantastical. A round box houses round, unbound artwork. Each of the cover elements--photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin--was produced exclusively for 'Fantasy': The dress was designed by Nicolas Ghesquiere for Balenciaga, Viktor & Rolf made the banner, and Jeremy Scott created the gold porcelain doll's head and hands. It was the first issue time we published Tim Burton, Gregory Crewdson, and Marcus Piggott and Mert Alas and there was a special section curated by Isabella Blow featuring, among others, David LaChapelle, Mariko Mori, and Tim Noble and Sue Webster. Each issue included an Hermès mask that many wore to the masquerade ball launch party" --Publisher's description. Library has copy no. 3135 of an edition of 6000. Gift of the publisher.
