Publisher's Synopsis

Working with Fran§oise Kirkland, the inimitable acrobatic sky dancer Erika Lemay, Milanese fashion director Simone Guidarelli, and designer William Thoren the team created a modern-day abecedarium. The playful creation harks back to the corporeal origins of the alphabet, echoing similar exercises in Western culture from the Renaissance to the great works of Art Deco, notably Ert© s famous alphabet suite. Besides Douglas Kirkland s impeccable photography, the reader is invited backstage to the making of these images with essays by Erika Lemay and the creative team.
