A unique collection of photographs by Yuriko Takagi, showcasing her poetic and surrealist look at Dior haute couture creations.
An important addition to the library of leading artistic photographers working to interpret the fashion house’s oeuvre. Takagi is an icon of Japanese photography, her enchanting and otherworldly images are built with a unique and careful consideration of shadows, the result of a career-long contemplation of natural light—a theme that plays a pivotal role in her work for Dior.
This book features exclusive shootings by Takagi of the most emblematic Dior haute couture designs. Takagi delivers her personal reinterpretation of the essence of Dior, opening a profound dialogue between her artistic conception and the codes of the House. Her photographs capture an ephemeral, intangible quality of the subjects, and her signature technique of layering images, in this case of flowers and architectural motifs over toiles of dresses and models, creates a dreamlike atmosphere. The result is a collection of great poetry, a surrealist promenade through Dior’s eras, and a unique observation of the inventiveness of the House over the decades.
Walter doesn't know what the big deal is—sure, it might be nice to have a green eggs and ham picnic on a hike, but doesn't Sam-I-Am know about all of the bugs? And the flowers that make you sneeze? Or the rivers that block your way? No, Walter is not a fan of the outdoors, he certainly is not. And nothing Sam-I-Am will do or say will change his mind. Too bad for Walter, Sam-I-Am is always up for a challenge!
Arcadia es un infierno de lujo. Una academia de tenis donde solo los mejores, los más ricos y ambiciosos tienen cabida. Con instalaciones de última generación, entrenamientos exhaustivos y una presión constante para ser el número uno, no hay lugar para los débiles.
Nicolás, sin embargo, no debería estar allí. Entró por pura casualidad, y nadie cree que merezca su plaza. Ni sus rivales, ni los entrenadores… ni mucho menos Marcos Brunas, ex-promesa del tenis fracasada que ahora se ve obligado a ser su tutor.
Con un futuro incierto y una rivalidad que crece con cada entrenamiento, Nicolás tendrá que demostrar que está dispuesto a darlo todo. Entre torneos cruciales y la creciente tensión con Marcos, el verdadero desafío no será solo ganar, sino enfrentarse a lo que realmente quiere y si está listo para luchar por ello.
