German-Australian photographer Helmut Newton is one of the world s most renowed and recognisable fashion photographers. Inspired by Expressionist cinema, film noir, and surrealism, Newton s radical images continue to fascinate viewers today. In 1999, along with collaborator Gert Elfering, Newton compiled a one off photographic album comprising eight unique Polaroids, 16 chromogenic prints, and 79 gelatin silver prints, each mounted on board and accompanied by Newton s own pencil annotation.
This album is unique and One-off reproduces it in full, faithful to the album s original size, as a facsimile. The book allows readers to experience this remarkable object in its entirety and to marvel at Newton s artistic process and ingenuity. Paired with a new foreword by Philippe Garner and an insightful interview between Matthias Harder and Gert Elfering, the book is published as a bilingual German-English edition.
