Publisher's Synopsis
Photographer Jean Noël Schramm has captured portraits of artists at their studios, places of residence, art venues, or on their travels for more than 20 years. He has also trained his camera on actors, musicians, filmmakers, philosophers, and other famous personalities, including as Louise Bourgeois, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Jeff Koons, David Lynch, Helmut Newton, Yoko Ono, Leni Riefenstahl, Paul Virilio, and Ai Weiwei. Although Schramm's photographs are, in part, staged, they never seem stylized and seek to depict their personalities unadorned. The text is in English and German.
