Beschreibung
Following the success of I Just Arrived in Paris (Steidl, 2014) THE FLOW is the second book in the continuing collaboration between Juergen Teller and Nicolas Ghesquière, artistic director of Louis Vuitton. On 1 October 2014 Teller photographed Ghesquière's Spring-Summer 2015 collection for the house, and the resulting book is a fluid mix of fashion photos in Teller's inimitable guileless style and images of Paris shot while boating down the Seine. This combination of portraiture, still-life and landscape photography mirrors the eclectic influences and materials which Ghesquière synthesizes in his collections-a bold, unconventional flow whereby innovation unceasingly rejuvenates tradition.
