The Launch of NAOMI CAMPBELL



With a multiple artwork by Pop Art legend Allen Jones, NAOMI CAMPBELL is limited to 1,000 Collector’s Edition copies and two Art Editions of 100 copies each, with signed photographic print by Paolo Roversi or Jean-Paul Goude.

The two-volume edition marks a major record of Naomi’s career to-date, incorporating both a ravishing, SUMO-sized image portfolio and exclusive autobiographical text. Volume 1, the photographic collection, showcases Naomi as styled and shot by such luminaries as Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, Richard Avedon, Anton Corbijn, Patrick Demarchelier, Steven Meisel, Helmut Newton, Herb Ritts, Paolo Roversi, Mario Testino, Ellen von Unwerth, and Bruce Weber. Volume 2 offers an unprecedented personal encounter with the supermodel, pairing Naomi’s own anecdotes and memories with family snapshots, personal notes, and photographs of friends and collaborators from her own archives.

Designed exclusively for Naomi’s book, Allen Jones’ artwork deploys stylized contours and smooth surfaces to invoke a sense of touch, while exploring the role of the supermodel in contemporary culture. In Jones’s words, “it does not attempt to illustrate Naomi, but to encapsulate her.”

This is the first in a series of international launches for TASCHEN’s NAOMI CAMPBELL.
