David Bailey’s 40 year career behind the lens is captured in the quaint 4×6 book “Look,” published by Phaidon Press Inc and in stores this month. The cover depicts Bailey’s son Sacha. Over 40 years, Bailey photographed celebrities and family member alike in intimate moments, capturing a range of emotions. Portraits of Johny Depp and Jack Nicholson capture the coolness of the iconic actors. A portrait of Sharon Tate and Roman Polanski depicts a hauting sense of innocence. Whereas, Bailey doesn’t shy away from personal moments, including a shot of his wife (Catherine Deneuve) giving birth. Bailey is adept at photographing artists including Andy Warhol, Julian Schabel and a nude Damien Hirst with the exposed flesh of a cow. Definitely, worth a long, hard look.
