Linda McCartney

Une rétrospective de la vie et de l'œuvre photographique de Linda McCartney. En 1966, alors qu'elle travaillait comme réceptionniste au siège du magazine Town and Country, Linda Eastman subtilisa un passe d'entrée pour journaliste et s'immisça à un concert promotionnel exclusif des Rolling Stones, à bord d'un yacht sur l'Hudson River. Les clichés spontanés et originaux qu'elle réalisa du groupe s'avérèrent bien meilleurs que les photographies formelles du photographe officiel du groupe, et elle se trouva très vite en position de devenir l'une des plus grandes photographes de l'âge du rock'n roll. Le 11 mai 1968, elle devint la première femme à avoir l'honneur de figurer en couverture du magazine Rolling Stone, avec la publication de son portrait d'Eric Clapton. Photographe privilégiée de la scène musicale de la fin des années 1960, elle fixa sur pellicule nombre de musiciens majeurs du rock, parmi lesquels Aretha Franklin, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, Simon & Garfunkel, The Who, The Doors, et les Grateful Dead. En 1967, Linda se rendit à Londres pour photographier l'enthousiasme des "Swinging Sixties", et y rencontra Paul McCartney au Bag 'o Nails club, avant de photographier les Beatles au cours du lancement de leur album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Paul et Linda tombèrent amoureux, et se marièrent le 12 mars 1969. Au cours des trente années suivantes et jusqu'à sa mort à l'âge de 56 ans, elle se consacra à sa famille, à la promotion du mode de vie végétarien, aux droits des animaux, et à la photographie. De ses premiers portraits des grands noms du rock n'roll, et des dernières années des Beatles, en passant par les tournées qu'elle fit avec les Wings, jusqu'à l'éducation de ses quatre enfants avec Paul, Linda a immortalisé tout son univers sur pellicule. Ses clichés vont des clichés de famille pris sur le vif à des séances photos en studio avec Stevie Wonder et Michael Jackson, ainsi qu'avec les artistes Willem de Kooning et Gilbert et George. Constamment pleine de fraîcheur et de spontanéité, son œuvre dénote une chaleur et une intuition pour choisir le moment précis saisissant l'essence de n'importe quel sujet. Qu'il s'agisse de ses enfants, de célébrités, d'animaux ou des moments fugaces de la vie quotidienne, elle les photographia tous sans prétention ni artifice. Ce volume rétrospectif - une sélection brillante au sein de ses archives de plus de 200 000 images - a été réalisé en collaboration étroite avec Paul McCartney et leurs enfants. En tant que tel, il constitue un témoignage émouvant et marquant du talent de Linda.

Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange. Book & DVD Set

Live from New York, it's Saturday Night! The complete history, on stage and behind the scenes On October 11, 1975 at 11:30 p.m., NBC viewers who tuned in to the network's new late night show saw a sketch featuring John Belushi repeating, in a thick foreign accent, nonsensical phrases about wolverines being read to him by head writer Michael O'Donohue. Abruptly, O'Donohue clutched his heart and collapsed onto the floor. Belushi paused, raised his eyebrow, and then did the same. Posing as the stage manager, Chevy Chase entered the set and feigned confusion before breaking character and announcing to the camera: "Live from New York, it's Saturday Night!" In that instant, television, which had long been out of touch with the young and hip, experienced the first seismic tremors of a major paradigm shift. TV comedy as we know it today owes it all to Saturday Night Live, the show that dared to take risks (not least the fact that it's broadcast live), challenge the censors, and celebrate the work of offbeat writer-performers. Hundreds of gifted and dedicated people have contributed to Saturday Night Live over the years, and this book pays homage to their groundbreaking work. The list of esteemed alumni, most of whom were complete unknowns when they debuted on SNL, reads like a Who's Who of the past 4 decades in comedy: John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd, Gilda Radner, Chevy Chase, Bill Murray, Al Franken, Eddie Murphy, Martin Short, Billy Crystal, Dana Carvey, Phil Hartman, Chris Farley, Mike Myers, Adam Sandler, Conan O'Brien, Chris Rock, Will Ferrell, Tracy Morgan, Jimmy Fallon, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Kristin Wiig, Seth Meyers, Fred Armisen, and Bill Hader--to name just a few. Now, as SNL celebrates its 40th anniversary, TASCHEN brings you the ultimate tribute to the show. To research this book, editor and author Alison Castle was given not only full access to SNL's archives, but also the rare opportunity to watch the cast and crew at work. She spent the better part of season 39 in the trenches, learning how everything comes together in just six days for the live performance. Part encyclopedia and part behind-the-scenes tour, Saturday Night Live: The Book covers both the making of the show and its remarkable history. Features include: Over 2,300 images from SNL's archives, many previously unpublished An illustrated breakdown of the 6-day week at SNL through the years, with an expanded section for the live show Seasons reference guide with complete cast, host, and musical guest lists Exclusive interview with founder and executive producer Lorne Michaels
