Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 110 pages. Published in 1997. Retrospective collection of photographs. Special Limited and Numbered Edition. Number 8 in the continuing Series by Stern. The single most rare and collectible title in the entire Series. The first 50 Issues of the Stern Portfolio Library of Photography, the most avidly collected Photography Series of its kind in the world, were all published as softcover originals only. A brilliant production by Stern: Oversize-volume format. Pictorial softcovers, which utilizes an extreme closeup portrait of tennis great Boris Becker (only his shaved head, bare shoulders, and arms are visible), and with titles on the cover, as issued. Photographs by Herb Ritts. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper in Germany to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Presents Herb Ritts' "Body Art". His first contribution to the now-legendary Series whose brilliant concept is to devote each Issue to a particular photographer, either as a "Portfolio Issue" or as a "Spezial Fotografie". Originally and privately published as a regular-sized exhibition catalog called "Form", to celebrate the launch of the Tag Heuer premium line, "Kirium", "Body Art" is, in effect, the "super"-size version. Here are Herb Ritts' ravishingly beautiful male and female nudes, all of them world-renowned athletes. Aside from tennis champions Boris Becker and Carlos Moya, soccer superstar Kazu, Olympic superstar-winners Amy van Dyken, Jacqui Agyepong, Jean Galfione, Dan O' Brien (in an imitation pose of Herb Ritts' famous "Nude Men Jumping" image), and Vitaly Scherbo are presented as living homages to Greek Classical sculpture (all of the athletes look like statues come-to-life). The stark simplicity of the lighting and near-absence of a set and props heighten the focus on the subjects. The athletes look like they have been scrubbed clean of physical imperfections, marbled beauties, gleaming, immaculate, and sublime. The athlete as model of perfection has a long and rich tradition, and Herb Ritts' work in the same vein will probably be his most enduring legacy. The Portfolio Magazine/Spezial Fotografie Series have become eminently collectible and now include Contributions by Peter Beard, William Klein, James Nachtwey, Francis Giacobetti, Annie Leibovitz, Nan Goldin, Mario Testino, David LaChapelle, Bruce Weber, Ellen von Unwerth, Giorgia Fiorio, Horst, Martin Parr, and Andreas H. Bitesnich, among many others. An absolute "must-have" title for Herb Ritts collectors. This title is the single most collectible Issue in the Series. This is one of few copies still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare copy thus. One of the most brilliant American photographers of the 20th century. A fine copy.
