Alasdair McLellan’s “Ultimate Clothing Company” book signing tonight at Ofr, Paris
Being from the North of England Alasdair McLellan‘s youthful curiosities channeled romantic notions about being English and Northern since he began to photograph in 1986. He has admired those who have directed generations through their own similar obsessions such as Bruce Weber’s playful and sexually charged imagery of America and Morrissey’s unfaltering melancholy and mythological observations. McLellan’s work maintains both the edginess of these influences as well as the unashamedly lyrical pulse which makes the work a tune for the masses. Alasdair McLellan’s Ultimate Clothing Company is both an intimate and introspective monograph edited and designed by M/M (Paris) and beautifully printed in a numbered limited edition of 2,000 with a poster-wrap dust jacket. McLellan will be signing limited edition copies of his book tonight from 6-9pm at Ofr, 20 Rue Dupetit-Thouars, 75003 Paris. Photo Michael Amzalag
