Bjork by Jean Paul Goude

Jean Paul Goude shot Bjork for the September 2007 issue of the defunct French magazine, Mixte.

Goude, of course, will forever be associated with Grace Jones, as he played a major role in developing her image. They were also a couple and had a son together, musician Paulo Goude.

This is a television screen shot of Cher at the 1985 MTV Music Video Awards. There were a lot of wigs this style in the audience that year.

Ok, see this? This is the process in which Jean-Paul Goude created that iconic Grace Jones image. Photoshop makes this kind of thing no big deal these days, but it took a bit of skill back then. This schematic was on display at the Brooklyn Museum last year in their show about music & photography.

Photo

Photo is a French photography magazine, focused mainly on the creative (rather than technical) aspect of photographs; mostly with a fashion objective. It's quite sexy, and seems a little more like high-end pornography. It's been around since the 70's.

Classic scene from Pretty in Pink.






I lost track of the source of this, but I remember seeing very many photos with people messing around with skeletons. Pretty freaky.
