Icon-Icon Opinion :

The work, vision, aesthetic of Peter Doig, one of the most renowned contemporary painter in the world, is reveled as rarely in this erudite and complete book, published by the beautiful publishing house Rizzoli.

Author : Richard Shiff, Peter Doig

Title : Peter Doig

Publishing House : Rizzoli

Release date : December 2016

In every artist generation, there are a few, or maybe just one, who propose a new series of questions and change the way we understand art. Peter Doig is such an artist. While the stories of paintings disappear in the early 1990s, considered as painters and their work strangely anacronistic, Doig, who looks to the future as much as to the rear to be inspired, creates a new pictorial language: an ironic mix of romanticism and post-impressionism to create enchanting and sometimes dreamlike landscapes.

    Icon Icon Opinion :

    A slightly lesser-known figure than Yves Saint Laurent or John Galiano, Marc Bohan nevertheless contributed, from 1960 to 1988, to making Dior the highly revered house it is today. With his slightly more ethereal silhouettes, Marc Bohan left behind designs that are as sophisticated as they are timeless. And this book sheds new light on that period – a period documented and explained in the words of Jérôme Hanover, Christian Dior’s Director of Publications.

    Of all the great Parisian couture houses, Dior is perhaps the most famous and prestigious in the world, embodying Christian Dior’s sublime vision of femininity. Following the abrupt departure of Yves Saint Laurent, the understated elegance of Marc Bohan’s design outlook regrounded the house of Dior on its original foundation of soft, ladylike, feminine silhouettes, which appealed to women around the world, from American socialites and international celebrities to royalty.

    Dior by Marc Bohan is the third volume in an unprecedented series of books devoted to each designer of a couture house, the ultimate compendium of the most memorable haute couture creations conceived and handcrafted by the renowned house of Dior since its inception. Carefully conserved in the world’s great museums and institutions, these fashion treasures have been photographed and exclusively compiled for this indispensable collection.

    Description :The triumph of an eternal house, seventy years after its spectacular first show.

    On February 12, 1947, a young house named after its founder, Christian Dior, presented a spring-summer haute couture collection in a Paris still in the grip of winter cold. The creations were shown in a salon freshly painted in dove gray at 30 Avenue Montaigne, a historic and mythical address. This is the novelty that Dior symbolizes for fashion in general, and for Paris in particular. These codes, this visual language have fascinated the many successors of the designer: Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, but especially John Galliano, and since 2017 Maria Grazia Chiuri. Their task has been, season after season, to find a new voice through the vocabulary of Dior.
