Anton Corbijn self-portrait


Depeche Mode, U2, Nirvana and Frank Sinatra are just a few of the outstanding personalities he's worked with. Photographer Anton Corbijn's works are now being exhibited at Moscow's Museum of Contemporary Art as part of the Moscow Photobiennale-2008.

The show entitled 'Four Perspectives of Anton Corbijn' represents a series of retrospective highlights of his career.

The first is the documentary pictures of musicians in black-and-white. The second series consists of studio shots of celebrities, dressed up in unusual costumes. The third highlight is the «33 still lives» series from the end of the 1990s, which imitates paparazzi shots. In the fourth part, Corbijn sets out a series of self-portraits titled “A. Somebody”, in which the artist dresses up as great dead musicians.

Corbijn says it marks the end of an era for him as he's now going to work on movies and a different kind of photography.
