Privitorul care deschide acest volum descopera o lume a intimitatii interzise pana acum: fragmente vizuale extrase din peste doua milioane de negative, unde imagini inedite vad lumina zilei dupa jumatate de secol de stat in arhiva. In Terry O'Neill: Every Picture Tells a Story, apreciem modul in care fotograful a transformat reportajul de culise intr-o forma de arta inalta, refuzand sa vanda secrete si alegand, in schimb, sa lase imaginile sa nunteasca povestea. Subliniem calitatea exceptionala a productiei de la ACC Art Books, care reda cu finete textura si profunzimea cadrelor realizate pe pelicula de 35mm, un format care i-a permis lui O'Neill sa surprinda momente de o vulnerabilitate rara. Simtim ritmul alert al anilor '60 si eleganta sobra a deceniilor ce au urmat prin portrete care variaza de la Frank Sinatra, urmarit timp de 30 de ani, pana la figuri iconice precum Amy Winehouse sau Nelson Mandela. Complementar lui Terence Donovan: One Hundred Faces din aceeasi perioada artistica, dar cu o perspectiva mai putin rigida si mult mai axata pe naturaletea candid-vulnerabila a subiectului, lucrarea lui O'Neill ramane o referinta pentru genul portretistic. In contextul operei sale, acest volum reprezinta o sinteza epica. Daca Breaking Stones se concentra pe energia bruta a debutului trupei The Rolling Stones, iar Bond Beauties and Villains explora estetica cinematografica, Every Picture Tells a Story functioneaza ca o antologie definitiva a intregii sale cariere. Credem ca aceasta colectie somptuoasa nu este doar un album de arta, ci o cronica vizuala a epocii celebritatii, documentata de un fin observator care a stiut sa fie prezent in cele mai exclusiviste cercuri fara a altera realitatea momentului.

Cititorul castiga acces la o arhiva privata rara, beneficiind de o perspectiva tehnica asupra tranzitiei de la portretul clasic la fotojurnalismul de 35mm. Este un instrument esential pentru a studia modul in care lumina si increderea dintre fotograf si subiect pot crea imagini care definesc o intreaga generatie.


Despre autor

Terence Patrick O'Neill (1938–2019) a fost un fotograf britanic legendar, renumit pentru documentarea modei si a celebritatilor care au definit spiritul anilor '60 si nu numai. Stilul sau distinctiv a constat in surprinderea subiectilor in ipostaze neconventionale, folosind o abordare discreta, de tip reportaj. Munca sa este inclusa in colectia permanenta a National Portrait Gallery din Londra si a fost recunoscuta la cel mai inalt nivel, primind Medalia Centenara din partea Royal Photographic Society in 2011. De-a lungul a cinci decenii, Terry O'Neill a lucrat pentru publicatii prestigioase precum Vogue, Time si Vanity Fair, ramanand unul dintre cei mai colectionati fotografi din lume.


Descriere scurtă

"Terry was everywhere in the 60s - he knew everything and everyone that was happening" Keith Richards "Terry O'Neill rates rightly as one of the best photographers in the world. He captures something special" Sir Michael Caine "When it comes to photographic legends there can be few more prolific or revered than Terry O'Neill, the man who shot the greats." VOGUE "This sumptuous collection of portraits, taken over six decades, represents the best of his memorable career and should grace every coffee table in the land" The Daily Mail "I've been repeatedly asked to write my autobiography - I have seen an awful lot of famous people at their best and worst - but I'm not interested in making money trading their secrets or mine. I want my pictures to tell a story not sell a story." Terry O'Neill Terry O'Neill is one of the world's most celebrated and collected photographers. No one has captured the frontline of fame so broadly - and for so long. For more than 50 years, he has photographed rock stars and presidents, royals and movie stars, at work, at play, in private. He pioneered backstage reportage photography with the likes of Frank Sinatra, David Bowie, Sir Elton John and Chuck Berry and his work comprises a vital chronicle of rock and roll history. Now, for the first time, an exhaustive cataloguing of his archive conducted over the last three years has revisited more than 2 million negatives and has unearthed unseen images that escaped the eye over a career spanning 53 years. Similarly, his use of 35mm cameras on film sets and the early pop music shows of the 60s opened up a new visual art form using photojournalism, to revolutionise formal portraiture. His work captured the iconic, candid, and unguarded moments of the famous and the notorious - from Ava Gardner to Amy Winehouse, from Churchill to Nelson Mandela, from the earliest photographs of young emerging bands such as the Beatles and the Rolling Stones to her Majesty the Queen at Buckingham Palace. O' Neill spent more than 30 years photographing Frank Sinatra, amassing a unique archive of more than 3,000 Sinatra negatives. Add to that the magazine covers, album sleeves, film poster and fashion shoots of 1,000 stars, and Terry O'Neill - comprises the most compelling and epic catalogue of the age of celebrity. Terry O'Neill has worked for the most prestigious magazines in the world including Time, Newsweek, Stern, Bunte, Figaro, The Sunday Times, Vanity Fair, People, Parade, Vogue and many others. And his award launched to showcase the work of young emerging photographers is now one of the most highly prized global competitions in art. The Royal Society of Arts has honoured him with the rare Centenary Medal for his lifetime achievement. Only a dozen have ever been awarded in recognition of 'outstanding contributions to the art and science of photography.'
