Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Helmut Newton(1920-2004) brachte dem Einfachen oder Vorhersehbaren immer ein gesundes Maß an Misstrauen entgegen. So überrascht es nicht, dass derSUMOein Projekt war, dem er nicht widerstehen konnte. Die Vorstellung voneinem Buch, das die Ausmaße einer privaten Ausstellung hat mit atemberaubenden Bildernnach modernsten Normen reproduziert und gedruckt entstand aus einem offenen, experimentellen Dialog zwischen Fotograf und Verleger. Mit den 35,4 Kilo Gewicht (knapp 80 Pfund), die derSUMO einschließlich Schachtel und Folie - auf die Waage bringt, schuf Newtoneinen Meilenstein des Buchwesens der sowohl mit der Extravaganz seiner Konzeption, als auch seinen technischen Datenmeterhoch über allem stand, was auf dem Buchmarkt je zuvor versucht worden war.DerSUMO ursprünglich in einer Auflage von 10.000 signierten und nummerierten Exemplaren erschienen, war bald nach seiner Veröffentlichung ausverkauft und stieg im Wert rasch auf ein Vielfaches. Heute sind einzelne Exemplare weltweit in zahlreichen bedeutenden Sammlungen vertreten, unter anderem im New Yorker Museum of Modern Art.

Jahrhundert veröffentlichte Buch als es am 6. April 2000 bei einer Auktion in Berlin einen Kaufpreis von über 317.000 Euro erzielte.Diese XL-Ausgabe feiert nun 20 JahreSUMO.

Mint, in its original packing case, as issued. NOTE: Helmut Newton (1920-2004) was one of the 20th century's best-known fashion photographers. He was especially famous for his many studies of nude women. He established a particular style marked by erotic stylised scenes, often with sado-masochistic and fetishistic subtexts. Born in Berlin, Germany, the son of a Jewish garment factory owner, he fled Nazi Germany in 1938, working briefly as a photographer for the Straits Times in Singapore before serving with the Australian Army during WWII. In 1948 he married the Australian actress June Browne. Post war, he worked as a freelance photographer producing fashion shoots and work for magazines such as 'Playboy'. In 1961 he settled in Paris, where his career as a fashion photographer flourished. It was in Paris that his own particular style developed. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s his notoriety and fame greatly increased. In later life he lived in Monte Carlo and Los Angeles. Signed by Author(s).
