Acclaimed author and style innovator Alice Harris curates a unique collection of photographs and works of art that celebrate lips of different shapes and sizes, tones and textures, and their power
and influence on our culture. Packed with more than 80 color and black-and-white pictures, Blow Me a Kiss presents stunning images by Andy Warhol, David LaChapelle, Francesco Clemente, Lillian Bassman, Elizabeth Peyton, Alex Katz, Cindy Sherman, Louise Bourgeois, Roy Lichtenstein, Man Ray, Elliott Erwitt, Jeff Koons, Elinor Carucci, Bert Stern, William Klein, Mario Sorrenti, and many other groundbreaking visual artists who’ve depicted lips at work and lips at play, from lips caught in quiet repose, to lips locked in a lustful embrace, to the lipstick stained remains of an ephemeral kiss.
Blow Me a Kiss spotlights lips so legendary that they speak for themselves from a range of famous personalities that have long seduced and spellbound audiences of every generation including music luminaries like Mick Jagger and Tina Turner and an international array of beautiful women from Marlene Dietrich, Audrey Hepburn, and Elizabeth Taylor to Lindsay Lohan, Cindy Crawford, and Lana Del Rey.

William Klein : Films
William Klein a bousculé le cinéma, comme il avait révolutionné la photographie en 1956 avec son livre sur New York. Ce dernier lui a d’ailleurs donné ses premières envies de mise en scène. Il aurait voulu tourner l’avant et l’après des photos.
William Klein shook up cinema, as he had revolutionized photography in 1956 with his book on New York. This one also gave him his first desire for directing. He would have liked to shoot before and after photos.

Lee Friedlander : The Shadow Knows
Connu pour ses autoportraits peu orthodoxes, Lee Friedlander nous a donné une autre collection, mais cette fois seulement dans l’ombre, avec The Shadow Knows, une référence à l’émission de radio des années 30 qui se terminait par la phrase: «Qui sait quel mal se cache dans les cœurs des hommes? L’ombre sait. »
Known for his unorthodox self-portraits, Lee Friedlander has given us another collection, but this time only in shadow, with The Shadow Knows, a reference to the 1930’s radio show that ended with the line: “Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow Knows.”
