PUBLISHER' DELIVERY IN SEPTEMBER, TO PRE-ORDER!
"Printed with ultraviolet ink in a hand-numbered, slipcased edition of 1,000 copies, photobook 'Color' is the first monograph by British photographer Ben HASSETT.
In keeping with his acute sense of the powerful language of color photography, HASSETT invites us into his world of photographic experimentation to experience the possibilities of this chromatic medium.
'Color' draws together HASSETTs iconic fashion and beauty images, studio still lifes, abstract in-camera works and landscape photographs to present his unique lexicon of color photography.
Putting aside the conventions of chronological and project-by-project sequencing, the book instead pursues a dynamic reading that surveys the past ten years of HASSETT’s standing as an influential image-maker.
'Color' is designed by veteran art and creative director Fabien BARON (known for his innovative art direction of 'Harper's Bazaar', Interview and Madonna’s infamous 1992 book 'Sex') and includes an essay about Ben HASSETTs photographic approach and effect by renowned curator and writer Charlotte Cotton."
