libro Lima, Peru

Even as Mario Testino has become a royal image-maker in England and in Hollywood, where his portraits define the new glamour for a generation of stars, models and celebrities, he has cherished visions of the elegance and endless beaches of Lima, the city where he grew up. He has always confessed his love: Im very proud of being Peruvian, I would not want to be from anywhere else. Ive lived in Europe for 30 years, but the moment I see our flag I get soppy. And he confesses it again here, though not in a traditional book of his own photography. For in Lima, PeruTestino make his first foray into the role of photo editor, celebrating the title city through the eyes of its artists, photographers, artisans and photojournalists. Of this projects genesis Testino says, I wanted to capture Limas positive chaos…I wanted to find a book which conveyed this–the way Limas artists and photographers have captured their citys color and complexity, its art, its people and its buildings, its street life and its interiors. But no such book existed, and so I decided to edit one myself. In Lima, Peru, Testino sets sweeping views of the citys architecture opposite details of its ceramic tiles. He collects observations of the citys natural exhibitionists as well as those who would normally shy away from the camera. He showcases art, parades, religion, sex, football, market life, architecture, interiors, high society, the bourgeoisie, teenagers, soldiers, surfers, priests, bullfighters, brides, hostesses, street sellers, waiters, artists, dancers, musicians and sun-worshippers. This is a shimmering, kaleidoscopic view of the city–a considered, eclectic and detailed composite from a master portraitist.
