About this title

Synopsis

With Works In Progress, Rankin presents a fresh take on the traditional collector's edition. Printed in a limited edition of 2000, each copy is a signed and numbered accompaniment to a vintage print, also signed and numbered, and comes in embossed presentation box. Known for major projects like Nudes and CeleBritation, these private works are Rankin's way of balancing a fast-paced, structured career with an overflowing and fertile private imagination. Shot in-between moments - ideas thought of and photographed almost subconsciously amidst a nonstoop routine of international fashion and portrait photography, exhibitions and books - they are personal collections not originally intended for publication. Now available as an exclusive insight into one of the world's leading photographer's working practice, this series displays the freedom, wit and sensuality that are so often missing from contemporary fashion and portraiture. Rankin's appreciative, meditative photographs, which include disgendered portraits of Helena Christensen, Kate Moss and Eleanora, expose a layer in the zeitgeist which has been widely discussed but which few have thought to record. Between the covers of Breeding lies an up to date, high quality map to no man/no woman's land.
