Book Synopsis
- The most significant collection of Prince images ever assembled
- Impeccably printed, sumptuously designed, large format hardback book from the publisher of the bestselling book Bowie: Icon
- Top photographers, iconic images, wonderful surprises
This sumptuous and luxuriously produced volume gathers portraits, album covers, photographs of performances and rehearsals, rarely seen private moments, and candid snapshots of Prince, one of the greatest singer-songwriters of his generation. This collection from ACC Art Books & Iconic Images - publishers of the bestselling book Bowie: Icon - was curated in consultation with Steve Parke, and its impact is both powerful, and inspiring. With images by renowned and little-known photographers from around the world, close friends, and colleagues, the result is the most opulent visual anthology of Prince that has ever been published. Accompanying personal essays and reflections offer unprecedented insight into what he was like: from memories of the earliest days in Minneapolis to touring the world, each contributor shares their memories and experiences of working with - and knowing - this legendary artist.
Review Quotes
"We think we've seen it all when it comes to Prince . The kohl-lined gaze, the swaying around the microphone stand, the flamboyant costumes. To see the man beyond the stage icon, a new book of photographs offers a new perspective. Prince: Icon, published by ACC Art Books, brings together more than 180 rare shots of this music legend who remained mysterious and elusive despite the spotlight." -Vanity Fair France
"In Prince: Icon, the new book published by ACC Art Books that captures the musician's legacy in unique and candid images and testimonies, Stacia Lang reveals the delights of working with one of the most impactful, legendary and prestigious names of all time." -Vogue Portugal
