Trans-figurations - Veruschka von Lehndorff & Holger Truelzsch (1983)
About
"On every page we witness but can hardly believe, the extraordinary transfiguration of a human body. In this book Verushka's body is denied it's reality. It mimics another - a glamorous film star, a gun-toting gangster in a white suit - chameleon-like it disappears into its surroundings, transformed into dead or decaying matter: a door, a wall, pipes, windows or sculpture, stones, lightening, trees. This disturbing yet utterly enthralling work is reproduced here for the first time in full colour, introduced by Susan Sontag..."
