"...this book sleekly embodies the understated elegance of the Italian luxury goods company." ~ San Francisco Chronicle " A richly illustrated survey of the craftsmanship, design, and extraordinary materials that have made the Italian label one of the most eminent purveyors of luxury goods in the world, this book will be the ultimate volume for the true connoisseur of luxury, and a must for anyone with an interest in the evolution of this venerable brand." ~ Lifeandtimes.com "Indeed, cracking open Bottega Veneta.. feels a lot like walking into a boutique and basking in the Italian-made glow on display." ~ Artinfo.com "For once this reviewer is flummoxed by this ultimately quintessential and exquisite love letter to the brand that is Bottega Veneta. What strikes one immediately upon completion of its reading is that this elegant and tastefully rendered homage is all about the brand and not the designer, which immediately elevates its worth and value as a book concerning style, fashion, and craftsmanship--not just a single diva designer.... topics so skillfully explored in this superb book, make sure you own it." ~New York Journal of Books, "...this book sleekly embodies the understated elegance of the Italian luxury goods company." -San Francisco Chronicle " A richly illustrated survey of the craftsmanship, design, and extraordinary materials that have made the Italian label one of the most eminent purveyors of luxury goods in the world, this book will be the ultimate volume for the true connoisseur of luxury, and a must for anyone with an interest in the evolution of this venerable brand." - Lifeandtimes.com "This coming year marks the 50th year of Italian luxury brand Bottega Veneta, and what better way to celebrate this milestone than with a restrospective tome showcasing more than a decade of its stunning ad campaigns? . . .

Synopsis
Bottega Veneta: Art of Collaboration celebrates the creative partnerships between the luxury house's Creative Director Tomas Maier and an exceptional group of world-renowned photographers and artists who envisioned and created Bottega Veneta's advertising campaigns from 2005-14. Distinct from the brand's first monograph Bottega Veneta (2012), this gorgeous photography book shines a light into the makings of each campaign, and is an essential for Bottega Veneta's loyal devotees as well as lovers of elegant fashion photography. This richly illustrated book features some of today's brightest visionaries working in fashion photography and contemporary art, as they reinterpret and translate Bottega Veneta's modernist aesthetic and material elegance to create these deeply powerful and impactful campaigns, each with their own unique vision and perspective., In 2002, Tomas Maier, Bottega Veneta's Creative Director, launched the Art of Collaboration --a project that invites a world-renowned photographer or contemporary artist to collaborate on the Italian brand's campaign for each season. With more than a thousand photographs, this book chronicles the comprehensive series of creative partnerships since the beginning. Divided by each seasonal campaign from 2002 to 2016, Bottega Veneta: Art of Collaboration documents the collaborations between Tomas Maier and all the artists who have contributed to the creation of Bottega Veneta's advertising portfolio including Lord Snowdon, Annie Leibovitz, Peter Lindbergh, Steven Meisel, Robert Longo, Nan Goldin, Nick Knight, Philip-Lorca diCorcia, and others. These creative individuals translate Bottega Veneta's timeless and refined elegance into beautifully cinematic campaigns season after season. Tomas Maier, whose r sum includes positions at Sonia Rykiel and Herm s, joined Bottega Veneta in 2001 as Creative Director and re-established the original identity of the brand founded in Vicenza in 1966, focusing on its values and original motto, "When your own initials are enough." Since joining, Maier guided the company with his distinctive vision of functional design and holistic creativity built around the dynamism of the collaborative process. Collaboration at Bottega Veneta is not only a meaningful alliance between the creative vision of its designer and the innovative techniques of the Italian master craftspeople, but extends to the way Bottega Veneta partners with talents on its advertising portfolio, and other initiatives. Featuring some of today's brightest visionaries working in photography, often from outside the world of fashion, Bottega Veneta: Art of Collaboration illustrates how they have each interpreted the house's modernist aesthetic and material elegance, resulting in a book that will be an essential volume for photography aficionados.

    Totally satisfied with this transaction! Arrived today, two days earlier than expected! Well packaged, and everything in the photos was included. The seller was even willing to haggle a bit since it needs a very minor repair! I’m so very excited to give this machine a functional home, and I intend to get a lot of use out of it in the coming years. Thank you so much! 😃
