\"After<\/a>
\nBag lady: Victoria Beckham says “Aaah” for photog Juergen Teller<\/em><\/p>\n

Interesting article<\/a> from yesterday’s New York Times<\/em> on the creative partnership between German photographer Juergen Teller and American designer Marc Jacobs. But even more startling are Teller’s images, which have prettied up W<\/em> and other fashion bibles for a decade: Teller as artist Cindy Sherman’s twin, or, in an incredible story, as Charlotte Rampling’s hapless gigolo.<\/p>\n

For the Rampling shoot, which was done in a Paris hotel suite, Mr. Teller thought it made sense for him to be in the ads, since he and the actress were friends and she didn\u2019t want to endorse a product. And because he vaguely had in mind a fantasy, he also packed on 15 extra pounds. \u201cI thought I should be this Louis XV big figure,\u201d he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

When she arrived and asked him to describe the concept, Teller says<\/p>\n

he was having grave doubts about the rest of his plan. \u201cI was smoking my cigarette, breaking out in a sweat. I said, \u2018Well, I was just thinking I could kiss you and fondle your breasts.\u2019<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The truly addicted may want to peruse the Times<\/em>‘s On the Runway<\/em> fashion blog entry on Teller<\/a>, or, better, his page<\/a> on the web site for Lehmann Maupin Gallery, which reps him. Highly recommended: A spin through his “Selected Works” there. The last picture\u2014the lone b&w one\u2014is, by itself, worth the price of admission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
