Portraits Nudes Flowers by Mariano Vivanco

Mariano Vivanco is one of the most celebrated photographers in the world today. His work regularly frequents the pages of Vogue, i-D, Man About Town and may more of fashion’s most prestigious publications. He is also the man behind some of the best fashion photography books of recent times.

Portraits Nudes Flowers is his latest releases and an instant classic. The beautifully presented new publication is a labour of love that includes over ten years of images from some of fashions best-known faces (Rihanna, Sam Smith, Cindy Crawford & Lady Gaga are just a few of the names).  Often in black and white, his portraits, nudes and editorial images use simple light and shade that starkly capture the natural spirit of the subject.

Nudes and flowers have been key subjects for Vivanco since he was a young photographer in Melbourne and have been integral to his signature style ever since. This new book contains a never before seen series of his flower photography, with split images presenting the collection of photographs in a new and modern way.

From £38.50 and available at Damiani.
