Description
From the sun-drenched interiors of Mediterranean villas to the storied halls of historic châteaux, French photographer François Halard has spent the last four decades shooting some of the world’s most marvelous interiors. The third and final celebration of this visionary’s work,
François Halard 3: New Vision
is filled with Halard’s shots of some truly breathtaking spaces — including painter Cy Twombly’s coastal family retreat in Italy; sculptor and architect Isamu Noguchi’s private studio in Japan; and architect Luis Barragán’s home and studio in Mexico, just to name a few. This visual tour is not only stunning to flip through, but also provides viewers with an appreciation for Halard’s unique knack for capturing a space’s emotion, soul and sense of history with his expressive lens. Amongst these images, you’ll find essays, interviews and personal reflections that give readers a deeper understanding of the legendary photographer’s influences, inspirations, creative process and the philosophy that guides his work. Handwritten captions and notes from Halard are peppered in throughout these stories as well, making this impressive tome also feel a bit like the artist’s own visual diary. A beautiful tribute to the unparalleled talent of one of the greatest interiors photographers of our time,
François Halard 3: New Vision
is sure to captivate and inspire design and photography lovers alike.
