Synopsis
Photographer Adrian Buckmaster is a master of the human form, capturing a cross section of humanity in all of its glorious diversity, from the ordinary to the extraordinary and everything in between. An Embarrassment of Riches, his first monograph, features nearly three hundred gorgeous images, showcasing the multitude of ways in which people present, modify, and adorn their bodies in the pursuit of self-expression. The costumes are as elegant and diverse as the subjects themselves, with ensembles that range from minimal to elaborate--black leather, Victorian ruffles, knitwear, and diaphanous chiffon, not to mention a plethora of hats, wigs, jewels, and tattoos., Photographer Adrian Buckmaster is a master of the human form capturing a cross section of humanity in all of its glorious diversity from the ordinary to the extraordinary and everything in between. An Embarrassment of Riches his first monograph features nearly three hundred gorgeous images showcasing the multitude of ways in which people present modify and adorn their bodies in the pursuit of self-expression. The costumes are as elegant and diverse as the subjects themselves with ensembles that range from minimal to elaborate-black leather Victorian ruffles knitwear and diaphanous chiffon not to mention a plethora of hats wigs jewels and tattoos., In his debut book of photography, with a foreword by one of the luminaries of NYC culture and entertainment, Adrian Buckmaster's monograph presents a staggeringly beautiful collection of portraits - a cross-section of humanity in all of its glorious diversity, from the ordinary to the extraordinary and everything in-between. Having spent his early years shooting commercial beauty and fashion, Buckmaster soon shifted focus to more personal projects, challenging conventional notions of beauty and celebrating the eccentricities of those whom society might classify as "misfits."Echoes of Buckmaster's early career remain, in the form of exquisite costuming, make-up, and scenic design. Despite an element of performance, there is an undeniable rawness to these portraits, in which subjects are both aware of the camera's gaze and sympathetically self-conscious, robing and disrobing, revealing and concealing. Buckmaster's photographic genius is encapsulated in his uncanny ability to fastidiously art direct while simultaneously stripping away layers of formality and convention. Arranged in three movements: Imposing, Revealing, and Inventing, this collection progresses from traditional portraiture to increasingly intimate portrayals, as subjects expose, create, and invent themselves. Included in this endlessly varied spectrum of characters are Burlesque performers, families, brides, lovers, and all manner of tattoos and body piercings. There are classical reclining nudes, reminiscent of douard Manet's Olympia or Titian's Sleeping Venus, dancers with incredible physical strength and dexterity, women costumed as peacocks and geishas, a contortionist inside a trunk, even a green-skinned man, bejewelled like an Indian deity. All of this and much more, An Embarrassment of Riches is a joyful celebration of individuality that will leave the reader mesmerised., In his debut book of photography, with a foreword by one of the luminaries of NYC culture and entertainment, Adrian Buckmaster's monograph presents a staggeringly beautiful collection of portraits - a cross-section of humanity in all of its glorious diversity, from the ordinary to the extraordinary and everything in-between.

- o***r (606)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaThis was one satisfying purchase. I ordered a heavy, rather large-sized used book. Delivery was from the US to Germany. The book arrived today, without any trouble, after slightly less than two weeks (which is good average) in exactly the same condition as described, well-packed and also well-fixed within the package. (Which is rare these days, even with brand new books sent by large commercial retailers.) I am quite delighted. Based on this purchase I highly recommend this seller.

Item was reasonably priced, new as described, shipping was priced fairly and fast, and most notable the book was packaged properly for shipment (secured to card backing to prevent damage in transit). Great experience!
