Título: u2 and i
Autor: Anton Corbijn
Sinopse: This is a book that in a way needs to be seen for real rather than on a website, but I can honestly say that this book is the best book I have ever made and it is a very bold yet delicate piece of work I believe. As the title suggests, this is a collection of photographs I took of U2 over a period of 22 years and that is unique in itself. The book contains all the photos of the band you d expect to find (all the well known shots of the Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby for instance), but also a lot of out-takes, private and random photos that are previously unseen. It is such a extra-ordinary relationship between U2 and myself that I decided to write, by hand, comments throughout the book to give the reader an insight of sorts. These comments are not gossip,they are at times informative and at times lightweight nonsense but you have to make your own way through it all. On top of this are other texts, specially written for this book, by Michael Stipe, Bill Clinton, Wim Wenders, Salman Rushdie, Paul Morley, Helena Christensen, William Gibson and a two way interview between Bono and myself, titled from B to A and back again . This hardcover book comes in at 3 kg, is printed beautifully, is spaciously designed and is made with love. Please have a look at it if you can at a friends or at your local book store.
