ART + COMMERCE NOW REPRESENTS PATRICK DEMARCHELIER

Art + Commerce is pleased to announce representation of Patrick Demarchelier, one of today's most prolific and celebrated image-makers.

Demarchelier is a master photographer whose images capture an often surprising and spontaneous vitality in even the most powerful icons of beauty and culture. Perhaps his best-known photographs are the portraits of Diana, taken with her sons, which helped to establish her as the 'people's Princess.'

For more than three decades Demarchelier's images have helped define nearly every major fashion magazine including American, British and Paris Vogue.  He has also created advertising images for clients including: Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Louis Vuitton, Dior, Calvin Klein, Gianfranco Ferré, Armani, Max Mara, Moschino, L'Oreal, Pirelli, and Tiffany.

His first book, Patrick Demarchelier: Fashion Photography (1989), was followed by Photographs (1995), Exposing Elegance (1997), and FORMS (1998), which accompanied the PAC Exhibition in Milan, at the Padiglione D'Arte Contemporanea Milano.  In the fall of 2008 Le Petit Palais, Musée des Beaux Arts de la Ville de Paris, presented a comprehensive selection of 400 of Demarchelier's photographs in a highly acclaimed exhibition that drew an audience of 130,000 patrons and was accompanied by a monograph covering over 40 years of his visionary work.

Demarchelier is available for projects through Art + Commerce (www.artandcommerce.com).
