Immune - Floria Sigismondi
/"Floria Sigismondi is a multi-disciplinary artist whose photography, videos, films and sculptures have had a major impact on contemporary visual culture. Six years after we released her first book Redemption, we are publishing Immune, a second collection of Sigismondi’s groundbreaking images that reflect the evolution and diversity of her recent work.
Immune features a remarkable blend of new photos including previously unreleased stills from the prize-winning video clips she has created for music acts including Christina Aguilera, the Cure, Incubus, Björk, the White Stripes (click for video) and Sigur Ros (click for video). These are complimented by more personal artistic images and self-portraits.
The bizarre, otherworldly look that Sigismondi has become famous for is still clearly recognizable, but Immune also highlights the range of her creative vision. In addition to presenting classic images, the book shows work that is subtler and at times irreverently critical of current politics."
