Architecture meets art, film meets literature, and dance meets fashion in this fascinating collection of interviews culled from the Vogue archives. Throughout its history, Vogue has featured more than models wearing the latest trends. It has also included enlightening and fascinating dialogues and interviews between often unusual pairings of artists, filmmakers, writers, dancers, and fashion designers, among others. Forty of these dialogues have been brought together in a scintillating volume that captures the icons of modern culture in conversation. Here Patricia Highsmith talks with Sir Peter Ustinov, Lauren Hutton with Francesco Clemente, and Jenny Holzer with Helmut Lang. Milos Forman chats with Mikhail Baryshnikov, Frank Gehry with Sophie Calle, and Twyla Tharp with Richard Avedon. Accompanying these discussions are exceptional duotone photographs by Nan Goldin, Nick Night, David Bailey, and other Vogue regulars. Their images, and the artistic intersections they illustrate, are as provocative and diverse as their subjects.
