Bøger af Jean Pigozzi

Collector and photographer Jean Pigozzi is renowned for his eclectic art collection and for his social circle, which includes film icons, directors, authors and artists, rock stars, fashion designers and titans of industry. Following on from his previous bestselling book ME+CO: The Selfies 1972-2016, his latest collection introduces us to the men and mentors who influenced his life. From his father Enrico Pigozzi - who passed away when Jean was just a teenager - to Italian entrepreneur Gianni Agnelli, from rockstars Mick Jagger and Bono to architect Ettore Sottsass to name just a few, Pigozzi travelled the world and met many of these men during gallery openings, parties, or dinner conversations. Through The 215 Most Important Men in my Life, we are reminded of the power of single individuals of the 20th and 21st centuries who became true icons in their fields.

Over the last two summers, Pigozzi has have been taking photographs of his young and very playful dogs. In 2016, he received from Hungary two Vizsla, that he called Charles and Saatchi, and he was immediately amazed by how crazy their playing was, so he started taking pictures of them that can sometimes look violent, but he can assure you this is all play. In 2017, another puppy arrived, who is also called Saatchi. She is a Rhodesian Ridgeback and she too played with Charles and Saatchi. He mainly took the pictures in black and white as it made them more intense and a bit more dramatic. This book, Charles and Saatchi. The Dogs , contains some of the best pictures Jean Pigozzi took of his dogs.
