- An unparalleled compendium of artful and inventive imagery
Re-shaping the conventions of fashion photography, Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin subvert the status quo to explosive effects. Bringing an underground perspective to exclusive brands and top-shelf celebrities, this provocative duo delight and vex in equal measure. Sometimes startling but always stylish, both their fine art and commercial work challenge the outer limits of digital wizardy. In 2006 van Lamsweerde and Matadin were invited to design the iconic Pirelli calendar- an assignment they undertook with characteristic verve. To dub their work unpredictable would be mere understatemen. This photographic Dutch "dreamteam" has trail-blazed for the likes of
Vogue,
Harper`s Bazaar or
The New York Times Magazine. An extensive advertising clientele includes Yves Saint Laurent, Stella McCartney and Jean-Paul Gaultier.
