(VISIONAIRE). Lagerfeld, Karl, David Bowie & Mario Testino. Gottingen, GERMANY: Editions 7L & Steidl, 2002. First Edition. Oblong 4to. Pictorial Boards. Fashion Monograph. As New/No Jacket - As Issued. 252pp, 400 color illustrations. From the acclaimed, best-selling "Fashion" issue packaged in a Louis Vuitton clutch, to the battery operated "Light" issue and the "Bible" issue's good book floating in a Philippe Starck case, the story of Visionaire is about pushing the boundaries of print and transforming fantasy into reality. Founded in 1991 as a journal of inspiration, a collection of artwork and images hand-assembled by a group of friends in a one-room apartment in New York City, Visionaire has since grown into one of the most highly sought-after fashion-and-art publications in the world. "Dreaming in Print" takes an intimate look at the publication's history and examines the making of each ground-breaking issue. Contributors Include: David Bowie, Karl Lagerfeld, Mario Testino, Nan Goldin, Bruce Weber, David Sims, Craig McDean, Nan Goldin, Nick Knight, David Sims and Craig McDean (amongst many, many others), as well as past guest editors Tom Ford and Rei Kawakubo, who speak candidly about their work, the creative process, and their experiences working with Visionaire. A brand new, most handsome example still in the publisher's shrinkwrap. 3-882438-19-3 Inventory Number: 020679
