Anton Corbijn: Famouz: Photographs 1975-88

Anton Corbijn's "firstborn child" Famouz, our own publication launched in1989, really sparked things off. All of a sudden, the photographer, who hadlong been a nominee for success behind the scenes of the pop world andrecord industry, entered the limelight. His portraits of rock and pop idolshad a completely different, completely novel slant: they were pensive,melancholic, more personal, galaxies away from the world of showbiz,glamour and image makers. Corbijn is now famous all over the world. Hisphotographs, which led to a new era of music photography, are on display atinternational exhibitions. With an introduction by Bono and designed bystar designer Peter Saville, the book contains photos of Tom Waits, SineaadO'Connor, Pete Townsend, Joe Cocker, Siouxie Sioux, David Bowie, Brian Eno,Peter Gabriel, Bono, Kate Bush, Sting, Leonard Cohen and many more.
