Helmut Newton's SUMO - Rezensionen
| "Women naked or dressed, portraits of the famous, and provocative mises-en-scène: 450 photographs by one of the greatest photographers of our time in a quite exceptional format."— Le Temps, Schweiz |
| „Das gewaltige Buch bringt nicht nur 464 Seiten voll kunstvoller Aktbilder mit sich, sondern auch knapp 30 Kilo auf die Waage. Deshalb ist der von Philippe Starck eigens designte Buchständer bereits im Kaufpreis inbegriffen, ebenso wie die fortlaufende Nummerierung und die eigenhändige Signatur des Kult-Fotografen. Letztere macht diese exklusive Auflage unbestritten zu einer absoluten Rarität.“— www.provocateur-magazin.de, Wien, Österreich |
| "An apt title for the biggest book of the 20th century."— Voyager, London, Großbritannien |
| "Ce n`est qu`un clin d`œil mais il dit tout l`humour impertinent et l`audace tranquille de Philippe Starck lorsqu`il s`agit de sortir des sentiers battus, ce qui semble bien être chez lui, une règle immuable. Il a réalisé cette étonnante table basse qui sert de support à SUMO (et s`agrandit lorsque le livre est ouvert); cet ouvrage fabuleux retrace la carrière photographique non moins extraordinaire du célèbre et souvent controversé Helmut Newton. Précisons que cet ouvrage titanesque (Editions Benedikt Taschen, 480 pages, 50x70 cm), seulement édité à 10 000 exemplaires, pèse 30 kg."— Côté magazine, Saint Laurent du Var, Frankreich |
| ".....to honor this most controversial and influential fashion photographer, this gorgeous book SUMO was created. Measuring 50 x 70 cm and 30 kg, and 464 pages, breaking any previous record, people soon realized that only in this size TASCHEN could show their respect for Newton. Really an astonishing publication. SUMO, edited by June Newton, features a wide selection of over 400 pictures, most of which are published for the first time, covering every aspect of Newton's outstanding career in photography: from his stunning fashion photographs, which pointed the way for generations of photographers, to his nudes and celebrity portraits. In defiance of the much-loved Japanese discipline that inspired the title of this colossal work, there is no need for it's proud owner to wrestle with SUMO. Philippe Starck has designed a unique device for displaying the book at home. SUMO is available to all Newton fans and photo devotees in a limited edition of 10 000 copies, all numbered and signed by the photographer. Within 5 years from its launch, the price has been raising from 200,000 to 650,000 yen. It is no longer a book, but a real collector's art piece."— DUNE, Tokyo, Japan |
| "TASCHEN offers high quality books at affordable prices for everyone who loves art, but the publisher has also been creating publishing sensations with the SUMO books, so named because of their massive size and weight. Helmut Newton's SUMO, an extravagant tribute to one of the greatest photographers of the 20th Century, entered history as the biggest book ever published. Only 10,000 signed and numbered copies were produced, and serial number 00001 fetched 36 million yen at an auction. Newton is no longer with us, but his soul lives on in this fantastic book"— Mono Magazine, Japan |
| "Mit 30 kg wiegt der legendäre Band SUMO fast so viel wie die darin abgelichteten Models: Nach dem Tod von Helmut Newton, dem unumstrittenen Altmeister der erotischen Fotografie, stieg die Nachfrage nach dem opulenten 480-Seiten-Bildband enorm."— Buchmarkt, Meerbusch, Deutschland |
| No tv set, no furnitures, no sofa, Sumo is everything you need in a living room ... you could even eat upon it!— straitjacket, Italien |
| "O livro de 464 páginas mede 50x70 centímetros, pesa cerca de 30 quilos e faz-se acompanhar por uma mesa de suporte desenhada por Phillippe Starck. Trata-se de uma homagem ao famoso e polémico fotógrafo alemao, Numa ediçao limitadade 10 mil ejemplares, todas elas numeradas e assinadas pelo artista".— Exame, Lisboa, Portugal |
| "Helmut Newton (TASCHEN). Con 30 kilos de peso, es el libro más gande del mundo, Starck tuvo que diseñarle un soporte especial para tenerlo en el salón de casa. Dentro, el erotismo frío de Newton en la auténtica mesa camilla".— Woman, Barcelona, Spanien |
