Bruce Weber O Rio De Janeiro Alfred A. Knopf, New York, 1986. First Edition. Folio 14.25 x 11”.<br />

SIGNED by Bruce Weber.<br />

Arguably <strong>the</strong> most influential contemporary fashion and celebrity<br />

photographer, Bruce Weber‘s second book, O Rio de Janeiro,<br />

incorporates <strong>the</strong> vivacious pastiche of original and borrowed material<br />

that had become <strong>the</strong> signature of his issue-filling spreads<br />

in Per Lui and L’Uomo Vogue. With this extended portrait of Brazilian<br />

Jiu Jitsu champion Rickson Gracie, Weber brought something<br />

new to <strong>the</strong> documentary photograph by employing a stylist,<br />

haird<strong>res</strong>ser, make-up artist, and design team. --Vince Aletti, Andrew<br />

Roth: The Book of 101 Books, pg. 254-7.<br />
