Morceaux Choisis.
Photographs by Bettina Rheims
Steidl, Gottingen, 2002.
44 pp.,
21 color illustrations,
5½x7".
A sexy red tin box, a simple yet elegant softbound book with a gray cover, and 21 color photographs. There is no text except the title and the colophon page-yet none, really, is required. This book is about love; love on a white shag carpet in the glow of light from a Northern facing window; love with high heels, fuschia fingernail polish, and three beautiful fashion models. A single red thread binds the pages together much the way these women have found themselves united by (explicit) love. A must for the collector.
