"He makes pictures but adamantly refuses to call himself an artist or the pictures art. He decorates photographs with butterflies, insects, bones, pages from magazines, found objects and drawings done by Africans. And there's a lot of blood. They are memorable, unclassifiable, and latterly have become immensely, globally collectable.... This month, TASCHEN the art publishers are issuing a limited-edition book of his work, of gargantuan size and opulence, which is likely to be oversubscribed by two or three times before it even makes it to your Waterstones... His images aren't quite art and they aren't quite photography. They're the leaves of a well-thumbed life." AA Gill, The Sunday Times Magazine, LondonUnited Kingdom |

"Attention collector. Le photographe Peter Beard, amoureux fou de l`Afrique, est encensé à travers un album qui se nourrit de son journal, de ses collages, photos et interviews. Pour acquérir cette merveille en cuir, coffret en série limitée (250 super-luxe et 2 250 luxe), il faut débourser 5000 € ou 2000 € ou plutôt, il fallait, car les super-luxe sont déjà partis en présouscription. Pour les autres, filez chez TASCHEN (2, rue de Buci, à Paris), dès le 27 novembre : Peter Beard y dédicacera ses ouvrages."Atmosphères, ParisFrance |
