A timelessly wild and sexy photo novella, still inviting viewers on a glamorous escapade 20 years on
Long known for her provocative work in the fashion world, photographer Ellen Von Unwerth becomes a director on the set of a sadomasochistic story told solely through images. Revenge begins with a trio of young women arriving at the estate of the Baroness, expecting a relaxing weekend. The Baroness, her chauffeur and her stablehand soon have them involved in something quite different. Von Unwerth creates a movie-style production complete with a cast and hair and makeup artists. Models wear clothes by Ann Demeulmeester and Dior, shoes from Louboutin and Dolce & Gabbana and more. Cinematic yet effortlessly high-fashion, Revenge encapsulates the aesthetic of the 90s and 2000s that Von Unwerth herself helped define, and includes her trademark glamor and eroticism that has made her the doyenne of modern fashion photography. This alluring vintage-style volume, with linen binding and an oval tip-on, includes an essay by British artist and writer Harland Miller.
Harland Miller (born 1964) was born in Yorkshire, England and received a Master's Degree from Chelsea School of Art in 1988. His first novel, Slow Down Arthur, Stick to Thirty was published in 2000 and received critical acclaim. In 2002 he was Writer in Residence at the Institute of Contemporary Art in London, where he curated an exhibition in homage to Edgar Allan Poe. He is best known for his paintings of Penguin book covers featuring satirical titles.
