Incognito (signed)
by Antonin Kratochvil
Photographs: Antonin Kratochvil
Publisher: Arena Editions
160 pages
Year: September 2001
ISBN: 1-892041-45-6
Price: 220 €
Comments: 25.4 x 2.54 x 32.39 cm
In this, his second book of photographs, Antonin Kratochvil turns his camera away from the human catastrophe and destruction he portrayed in Eastern Europe to reveal another side of modernity - the broad-reaching spectrum of the entertainment industry. Kratochvil's unique take on the famous and fashionable is not the candy-coated imagery so prevalent in today's fashion and movie magazines. His work underscores the physical and psychological intensity of the creative men and women who have sat before his camera with images not designed to flatter but rather created to reveal something below the surface. Mostly taken on assignment for Detour, W, GQ, and Premiere, Kratochvil's celebrity portraits have never before been assembled in a book. Incognito is the first such compilation. It shows off the photographer's expressionistic, gritty, and sometimes dark style that has become a unique signature in the world of editorial and portrait photography.
