Meer over het boek

Famous Pairs humorously captures history's notable twosomes, presenting them in a fresh and quirky light. From Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers to Buffy and the Vampire, this collection offers a unique twist on celebrity depictions. Some pairs are sweet, others juicy, and some downright tasteless, making it a delightful read that you won't want to put down. Unlike typical art photography books filled with mundane images of celebrities, this work takes a creative approach by portraying famous couples as pears. Photographer Jeannie Sprecher and writer Kim O'Brien deliver a witty commentary on culture through their artistic lens. You'll instantly recognize iconic duos: Bonnie and Clyde with bullet holes, Adam and Eve with the apple, and King Henry VIII alongside a decapitated Anne Boleyn, among others. With stunning arrangements of Anjous, Bartletts, Red Bartletts, and Boscs, complemented by rich four-color photography, this collection both critiques and competes with the most pretentious art photography. After experiencing this juicy assortment, you'll undoubtedly find yourself wanting another serving!
