About the Artist:
Helmut Newton (born Helmut Neustädter; 31 October 1920 – 23 January 2004) was a German-Australian photographer. The New York Times described him as a "prolific, widely imitated fashion photographer whose provocative, erotically charged black-and-white photos were a mainstay of Vogue and other publications." His work in the 1960s set him up for what is considered his most influential period, in which he produced the work that would come to define his style. Combining the glamour and decadence of high fashion with a subversive sexuality, his photographs dare the viewer to challenge preconceptions. Newton became an iconic fashion photographer recognized for his radical, edgy, and, at times, racy subject matter. Inspired by film noir, Expressionist cinema, and surrealism, Newton's images are controversial, provocative, and heavily voyeuristic in nature.
About the Manufacturer:
From his humble beginning selling comic books in his native Cologne to his rapidly expanding book publishing empire, Benedikt Taschen has been all about living large - literally. Sumo, a 464-page, 66-pound compendium of Helmut Newton's photography is one of the largest and heaviest books ever produced - it comes with its own display stand - and among the most expensive, too. The first copy in a limited edition was published in 1999 and signed by many of the celebrities whose images appear in its pages sold at auction for $364,000.
