"Annie Leibovitz is one of the most aesthetically gifted photographers alive. "— Paul Roth, director of the Ryerson Image Centre. "— Sherri Geldin, director of the Wexner Center for the Arts. "Iconic is an overused word, but it feels apt when describing the globally recognisable, influential, and compelling images of photographer Annie Leibovitz. Now, in a luxurious new compendium, her last decade of work is showcased in all its glory... This is Leibovitz in excelsis: movie and music stars, politicians and power brokers; the inevitable nudes - Lady Gaga splayed over a bed, and a rather simian Jeff Koons admiring himself in a mirror; as well as a panoply of less familiar characters and still-lifes from her Pilgrimage series of objects and places with historical resonance. In her new book, the Hollywood glitz gives way to more contemplative pictures of artists, painters and musicians. "Breathtaking... Leibovitz has produced compelling images that are a subtle combination of staged and relaxed. "Witty, personal and always unique, Leibovitz has a career of capturing iconic people... A majestic who's who of the last decade.
