Kate Moss Photographs by Christoph Martin, by 5 Pieces Gallery on Aug 31, 2017 8:48:37 GMT 1, When Christoph Martin photographed Kate Moss one evening after a fashion shoot on Venice Beach, LA, her career was just about to start. Little did he know that the young girl from Croydon with her heart-shaped face and wayward vivacity would change the face of modeling, and redefine fashion history forever. These pictures, in which she stands barefoot on the beach with her hair unkempt and cigarette in her hand, exude the newness and facility/ease that the world of fashion had been lacking. Delightfully fresh as the air surrounding her, Kate would soon start to stir the worldโs imagination with her alluring combination of sexuality and childlike innocence, and her neutral expression, which could be anything youโd imagine.
We are excited that Christoph Martin is offering some of his favorite photographs from this inspiring photoshoot with Kate Moos in three limited editions exclusively at 5 Pieces Gallery, and from today until Sept 7 even at reduced prices!

Kate Moss Photographs by Christoph Martin, by Quinnster on Aug 31, 2017 15:56:59 GMT 1, They will never sell out if they are going to release them on the same scale as the last Kate Moss editions they churned out! Endless different versions of the same image for the last 3-4 years. Let me guess when these versions sell out maybe a sepia or glitter version?
And tiered pricing probably..

This sale would be a good case study on the value of specialised knowledge when considering a purchase.
Taken in isolation, the above images are pleasant enough to look at.
However, as with fine artists, photographers can also be guilty of unconsciously borrowing or knowingly stealing ideas and styles from others โ usually, from their more talented and successful peers. Context and history are therefore important.
Most followers of fashion photography will view these Christoph Martin images as derivative. The influences are too immediately apparent.
From the first and second photos, Martin at the time must have been studying a lot of work by Peter Lindbergh. Those who don't see what I mean can Google Lindbergh's name along with "beach" or "white shirt". As for the third photo, to me it comes across as an Ellen von Unwerth rip-off.
__________
If any members are interested in fashion photography, I would encourage them to reach out to galleries with an expertise in the field. You're far more likely to discover available works by recognised photographers. This way, there's at least a small chance of recouping any money paid if you decide to resell in the future.
At the risk of stating the obvious, photographers with established careers have a far broader collector base. Martin is not in this position.
__________
By way of further caveat, as already referred to by others in this thread, 5 Pieces Gallery destroyed its own reputation with what felt like never-ending releases of the same Kate Moss images shot by Kate Garner.
Those multiple releases showed the gallery to be overly concerned about short-term gain, and having the vision of a fly-by-night operation.
What they also demonstrated is that the gallery is either contemptuous of or clueless about accepted (and acceptable) practice in the industry โ such practice serving to safeguard the interests of collectors and the integrity of the limited-edition print market.
