Great photographers are often described as having a unique, unmistakable style—a phrase that can feel hyperbolic, yet for a few true originals, it rings entirely true.
One of them is undoubtedly Steven Klein, the artist who seems to plunder the unconscious, giving visual form to our deepest desires. Klein is also a profound interpreter of fashion’s language, as demonstrated by the iconic photo shoots he has created throughout his long career. The book Steven Klein: Vogue, published by Abrams this December, gathers some of his most cinematic and unforgettable images commissioned by Anna Wintour for Vogue US between 2000 and 2019, and produced in collaboration with editors including Phyllis Posnick, Grace Coddington, Camilla Nickerson, and Tonne Goodman.
The subjects of these photographs? Legendary models and contemporary icons. “With Steven Klein, you’ll give him a dress,” writes Wintour, “and he’ll give you a girl with a dress with a robot in a garden. It’s clever, conceptual, and ultimately lyrical.” We spoke with him ahead of the book’s release, scheduled for early December.
