{"product_id":"9783836597999","title":"Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn by Anton Corbijn","description":"In November 2020, Depeche Mode were inducted into the Rock \u0026amp; Roll  Hall of Fame, and Dave Gahan, accepting the honour, said: \"I'd like to  thank Anton Corbijn who thank God came in at the right time and actually  made us look cool.\" Also in the fall of 2020, TASCHEN released the  limited edition Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn (81-18) signed by  Depeche Mode and Anton Corbijn, and it became one of the fastest  selling collector's editions in the publishing company's history. This pocket-sized and wallet-friendly edition is a testament to  Corbijn's unique vision, and indeed \"cool\" as Gahan acknowledged so  movingly in his speech; an illustrated history of how Corbijn,  who became in 1986 the band's de facto creative director, and helped  cement Depeche Mode's reputation as the biggest cult band in the world.Featuring over 150 photographs from Corbijn's extensive archives, including formal and informal portraits from  places such as Madrid, Hamburg, the California desert, Prague and  Marrakech; a multitude of off-the-cuff, candid  images; and stunning live shots from all their tours since 1988 right up to 2023. Created with the full collaboration of the band, who share some insights on working with Corbijn, Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn trumpets how one man's original aesthetic,  that has encompassed all of their photography, most of their music  videos, album graphics and set designs, helped shape the band's enduring  popularity. Reflecting on his role in Depeche Mode, Corbijn recalls in the  book's introduction: \"A lot of it came down to me, and I wanted it to be  right for them. I wanted to think for them. To be great for them.\" This  book is a tribute to the depth and breadth of that greatness, a  celebration of one of the most creative and enduring collaborations in  rock history.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56309836251509,"sku":"9783836597999","price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9783836597999.jpg?v=1762813528","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9783836597999","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
