Nicole Kidman, New York, 2003
Brad Pitt, Las Vegas, 1994Wonderful photograph, in its saturation and use of colour, juxtaposition (or maybe just clashing) between the orange bedspread and Pitt's peroxide locks. Nice pants, btw.
Milkhail Baryshnikov and Rob Bresserer, Cumberland Island, Georgia, 1990I fucking love the above photograph. I love the tonal black and white, I love the posture of Bresserer and the perfection of Baryshnikov. I love the homoeroticism and the ease of Bresserer's elevation of Mischa. How the two of them look weirdly happy just doing what they're doing on a Georgian beach. For my money, one of Leibovitz's best photographs. And the thing is, I love the relative simplicity of this photograph than all the shit she does with the Disneyfied, gimmick schtick, just stick to a beautiful shot with all the action in front of the lens not on a computer monitor afterwards. Less is more, Leibovitz!
All of the above three photographs were included in an exhibition entitled Annie Leibovitz: A Photographer's Life, 1990-2005, held at the San Diego Museum of Art from 10 February to April 22 2007.
