In her lavishly produced third book, accomplished editor and photographer Kelly Klein celebrates the myriad incarnations of the cross in photography of the past century.Here are images of the cross in both nature and the man-made world, in precious decorative objects and industrial architecture, in the shapes of the human body and the shapes of shadows.These pictures show how this most potent symbol can be transformed into the sacred, the ordinary, the profane, depending on its use and surroundings.This is the first book ever to distill the icon of the cross to its pure aesthetic essence, to explore its universal beauty. Photographs from the best photographers of the 20th century -- Richard Avedon, David Bailey, Fabien Baron, Erwin Blumenfeld, Nan Goldin, David Hockney, Horst, Andre Kertesz, Steven Klein, Jacques-Henri Lartigue, Annie Leibovitz, Peter Lindbergh, Sally Mann, Robert Mapplethorpe, Mary Ellen Mark, Duane Michals, Tina Modotti, Francois Nars, Len Prince, Man Ray, Herb Ritts, Michael Roberts, Sebastiao Slagado, David Seidner, Bert Stern, Phil Stern, Paul Strand, Mario Testino, Michael Thompson, Ellen von Unwerth, Albert Watson, Bruce Weber, Edward Weston, among many others, are featured. A preface by Kelly Klein, as well as brief texts from a wide range of voices, including best-selling author Father Andrew Greeley, Barneys Creative Director Simon Doonan, W magazine's Chairman Patrick McCarthy, and New York Times contributor Bob Morris, speak of the cross's intriguing and unexpected meanings. Exquisitely designed and printed, Cross is the must-have book for the photography and fashion worlds and anyone interested in the visualization of a symbolic form. Kelly Klein's royalties will be donated to the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation.

Zustand: Sehr gut. Ein tadelloses Exemplar. - Aufwändig gestaltetes Fotobuch zum Thema "Kreuz" mit Texten von Simon Doonan, Father Andrew Greeley, Robert Mapplethorpe, Patrick McCarthy, Duane Michals und Bob Morris. - "Kelly Klein Finds the Cross . . . Everywhere. Photographer David Seidner sees the sign of a cross in a human face, Martien Mulder in the clouds. Paul Woolf finds the symbol in a New York bridge, Len Price in the banal arrangement of a knife and fork. Although a couple of publishers rejected Kelly Klein's new photography book, "Cross," on the grounds that it might be too controversial, Klein believes her $95 anthology, which contains photos by such figures as Robert Mapplethorpe, isn't what they expected. "It ended up addressing the subject with a real sense of humor," Klein said the other day in a phone interview from Maryland, where she was competing in a horse show. "Cross," published by Callaway, features interpretations of the powerful symbol by Richard Avedon, Walker Evans, Nan Goldin, Annie Leibovitz, Man Ray, Mario Testino and Bruce Weber--but not Klein, who usually works as a fashion photographer. A photographer for the last four years, the 43-year-old Klein says she's not ready to compile her own work into a book just yet. "I need more practice." Four years ago, Klein began writing letters to fashion, still-life and architectural photographers, museums and historical societies, asking for photos. "I explained that it didn't have to be a cross in its historical form, it could be photographer's point of view of a cross . . . a street sign or an airplane in the sky, for example. My intention was not to do a history book, but to show the cross in many forms and in many shapes. It is such a powerful symbol and, yet, such a simple graphic shape." Klein, raised Protestant, said she believes in God but doesn't consider herself particularly religious. She attributes her appreciation for the symbol to her mom, Gloria List, a religious-art dealer in Santa Fe, N.M. List (to whom the book is dedicated) often gives crosses to her daughter as gifts, and Klein's Manhattan apartment is full of them--on coffee tables and propped up against the walls. She also collects cross jewelry, and the diamond one she wears around her neck (a St. Valentine's Day gift from her husband, Calvin Klein) has become a talisman of sorts. "I feel protection when I wear it," said Klein. "I won't jump horses if I don't have it on." " (Booth Moore, Los Angeles Times).
