Description
Mark Seliger's award-winning photographs of musicians, actors, politicians, authors, comedians and athletes bring to life the celebrities who mattered in the 1990s. This volume is a "showcase" of his work. Renowned for researching his subjects, Seliger seeks to come up with unexpected, imaginative ways to depict these personalities and to create unforgettable images. Whether a clownish Jerry Seinfield costumed as Buster Keaton or a candid Mick Jagger in a world-weary close-up, he aims to avoid the formulaic in his approach.
