Andy & Grace by Gary Lee Boas
Celebrity-photographer Gary Lee Boas is known for his snapshots of The Famous of The Earth, wich, in retrospective, have become art. Shots of a young Al Pacino or Jack Nicholson, Jackie Kennedy or Barbara Streisand; no celeb was ever save for Gary's camera.
Now Famous has got its hands on two little Gary Lee Boas-diamonds: two original and signed photographs of Andy Warhol and Grace Jones.
We made a high-end portfolio to hold the photographs; (detail shown above) edition: 28
Above you see the portfolio as a spread; the photographs are framed by a velour-like material.
Below: details of the photographs.

Visionaire 55: Surprise! - Sign up now.
A peek inside the new Peter Beard book... :-)
This new Taschen-published book of Peter Beard is very modest on the outside, but oh so extravagant on the inside. Leafing through will take you longer than planned - there's just too much to discover!
Nice to know: another edition of this book is available for 10,000 euros. It has the same contents as the "regular" one, but includes a signed photograph and has a leather cover.

Dadara Munnification
Back in 2006 Famous hosted the first, and highly succesful, Dutch Munny event "Munnification".
Dutch artist Dadara created unique, hand painted designs on these vinyl critters.
One of which was used for Dj Tiesto and Maxi Jazz's "Dance For Life" record sleeve.
Some of these unique figures are still for sale at Famous.
Below are some photographs of this event.
