fAnToMbooks<br />
part of the generation of photographers that included Juergen teller and terry richardson, marcelo Krasilcic<br />
(born 1969) moved from São paulo to new York in 1990 to study art and photography, and quickly became<br />
known for his spare, iconic and sweetly erotic photographs of liberated youth, artists, designers, musicians<br />
and otherwise beautiful and creative personalities. Krasilcic captured the style of the 90s in situ, outside<br />
of the studio, and his photographs of people like maurizio Cattelan, everything but the girl and Chloë<br />
Sevigny were immediately absorbed by the most influential magazines of the era, including Purple, Dazed<br />
& Confused, Self-Service and Visionaire to name a few. today, Krasilcic travels extensively on assignment<br />
as a portraitist and fashion photographer, produces sculpture and installation work, and directs art, music<br />
and fashion videos. at more than 300 pages, this oversize, slipcased, clothbound, two-volume publication<br />
features only the work for which Krasilcic first became known: his era-defining photographs from the 1990s.<br />
Marcelo Krasilcic was born in São paulo, Brazil and moved to new York in 1990 to study art and photography<br />
at new York University. Krasilcic has directed art, music and fashion videos while continuing to work<br />
between art and fashion photography.<br />

Polaroid portraits of fashion icons and celebrities<br />
Diego Uchitel: Polaroids<br />
dAMIAnI<br />
Diego Uchitel has long revered the polaroid for its dreamlike color and<br />
depth, and over the course of his 25-year career, he has continually<br />
sought to conjure these qualities in his fashion and celebrity photography.<br />
Uchitel used polaroid film from 1982 to 2006, until the digital camera<br />
became an unavoidable replacement. this volume is his loving homage<br />
to the medium that helped define his style—a selection of his favorite images,<br />
both commercial and personal, of models, fashion designers and<br />
celebrities such as Jessica alba, gabriel Byrne, Sofia Coppola, Diane von<br />
Furstenberg, Lazaro Hernandez of proenza Schouler, Jack mcCollough,<br />
Julianne moore and Sting, as well as landscape photographs. Polaroids is<br />
awash with the tonal warmth and artifact feel of polaroid film, from its<br />
splendid design to the photographs themselves, which are reproduced<br />
in their original (and current) condition, with traces of tape and little<br />
signs of wear and tear around their edges. the book is bound in linen<br />
with a tip-on image.<br />
Diego Uchitel grew up in Buenos aires, argentina, where as a boy he<br />
often photographed his physician father’s patients. He moved to Los<br />
angeles just after high school to pursue a career in film and enrolled<br />
at UCLa Film School, but soon realized that photography was closer to<br />
his heart. Uchitel’s photographs have been featured in Elle, Vanity Fair,<br />
Harper’s Bazaar, german and Spanish Vogue, Vogue Hommes, The New<br />
York Times Sunday Magazine, D, Surface, Premiere, Citizen K and Rolling<br />
Stone. His advertising clients include Bergdorf goodman, Saks Fifth<br />
avenue, victoria’s Secret, Diane von Furstenberg, anthropologie, graff,<br />
avon, neiman marcus, olay, Warner Brothers, nike, Levi’s and microsoft.<br />
