Jungle Fever

First Edition, hardcover with illustrated dustjacket, 147 pages, 29.5 x 23.5cm.
Jungle Fever is a journey through the mind of photographer, image creator, graphic designer and art director, Jean Paul Goude. This dizzying excursion includes Grace Jones, Mexican and Latino dancers, Touki Smith and many more of the outlandish personalities that inspired him and his exuberant work. His collaborations with Grace Jones are the most famously iconic images depicted here. The book documents the development of these, with the aid of mock ups, collages, drawings, set designs and annotated photographs. A Cult Classic. Some minor repaired tears to back of dust jacket. Book itself is in very good condition.
