Gotts, Andy • Boek • hardback

• Samenvatting
  A sumptuous celebration of photographer Andy Gott’s unique portrait style, charting his 30-year career. With a foreword by Stephen Fry, contributions from Kate Winslet and John Hurt, and appreciations by David Gandy, Brian May, Michael Palin, Ringo Starr, Dick van Dyck, Vivienne Westwood. In 1990 Andy Gotts, then a young photography student at Norfolk College of Arts and Technology, approached Stephen Fry at an event to ask him for a portrait. That brief meeting led to an even briefer photographic session (90 seconds), during which Andy realised he had discovered his photographic approach: "I cannot remember what I said to provoke the expressions and reactions I had in these 10 frames, but that was it... BOOM! ... my eureka moment". Some 30 years later, Andy's unique portrait style - rapidly taken and often face-on - is admired for capturing the charisma of famed sitters such as Kylie Minogue, Meryl Streep, Harrison Ford and Kirk Douglas. Andy's chatty, quick-fire approach led Paul Newman to nickname him 'One Shot Gotts'. Andy Gotts was awarded an MBE in 2012 for his contribution to photography. This publication accompanies an exhibition at Sebastian Gallery, Mayfair, opening March 2021.
