Publisher's Synopsis
As the millennium fast approaches, it is Mark Seliger who emerges as the iconographer of the twentieth century's final decade. Seliger's award-winning photographs of musicians, actors, politicians, authors, comedians and athletes bring to life almost every celebrity who mattered in the 1990s. THE MARK SELIGER PHOTOGRAPHS will be the ultimate showcase of his provocative work, the first monograph devoted exclusivity to his images. Seliger is renowned for researching his subjects; he comes up with unexpected, imaginative ways to depict these personalities and creating unforgettable images. Whether a clownish Jerry Seinfield costumed as Buster Keaton or a candid Mick Jagger in a world-weary close-up, there is nothing formulaic about his approach. His work is exhilarating in its range, from sexy to broadly humorous, poignant to compelling.
