Description
In 1999 I did a book called Go-Sees where girls came knocking on my door over a one-year period to show their portfolio and themselves. Recently, walking through Paris, I found myself thinking what work I would exhibit in my upcoming museum show in Naples. Handbags, I'm just gonna do a handbag book and a show. It felt like another Go-Sees book to me.
Friends of my girlfriend were asking me what kind of a photographer I am, what I photograph. I replied: "Actually, come to think of it, mostly handbags." I always like their astonished and disappointed faces!
I realized through the 30 years of my career, I photographed a hell of a lot of handbags within my fashion work. And as the Americans once said to me, "Where's the money shot?" I looked at them puzzled. "Show me the money shot!" they repeated. Here they are: the money shots in this collection of images for my new book.
