Full Description
In 2001, Edition Patrick Frey published Welcome Aboard, a compilation of Walter Pfeiffer's photographs from 1980 to 2022. The book revealed Pfeiffer's importance as a pioneer of contemporary photography and laid the foundation for his rise from a classic "artist's artist" to a world-renowned artist who went on to work for international magazines like Vogue and shoot campaigns for luxury brands like Bottega Veneta. Chez Walti retraces the arc of this recent work over the past 23 years and shows how Pfeiffer ?ne-tuned and renewed his photographic gaze, absorbing in?uences from the current zeitgeist even while remaining unmistakably himself in both his personal and commissioned work. Pfeiffer's light, witty touch and unfailing eye for beauty are the hallmarks of his gorgeous guys and cheeky gals, lush still lifes and bucolic landscapes, chic fashion and bare skin. Chez Walti catapults us into Walter Pfeiffer's weightless parallel universe, whose magic has intensi?ed over the past two decades.
