A compact revised edition of Teller’s best-selling Handbags, featuring new images of Megan Thee Stallion and Roni Horn
This revised and expanded edition of Juergen Teller’s (born 1964) bestselling Handbags features a considered selection of images from the original 2019 book, alongside his favorite photographs made since. As before, Teller’s advertising campaigns for distinguished brands such as Coach, Dolce & Gabbana, Loewe, Saint Laurent and Vivienne Westwood are shown with images of handbags deftly styled for fashion editorials—all worn by celebrities and models or photographed as still-life objects. Teller acknowledges the visible shift toward celebrity endorsement in recent years, which has led to exciting new encounters with a multitude of actors, musicians, artists, writers and filmmakers. In his unmistakable subversive, raw style, Teller presents the ultimate fashion accessory as an everyday item rather than as a glamorized commodity, often in surprising contexts (a handbag perched atop supermarket vegetables) or with humorous intent (a bag sitting on a taxidermy crocodile). This time around, More Handbags has the compact size of a handbag itself, making it more accessible and tactile.
PRAISE AND REVIEWS
The Whitney Review of New Writing
Jocelyn Silver
Teller's work is famously playful and scruffy, and he gives these designer handbags personalities as distinct as the people holding them.
