Title: Antonio's people
Description: "Antonio Lopez captured the pulse of style from the 1960s to the 1980s, and is still revered as the most inspiring illustrator by today's practitioners. Recording and predicting contemporary trends, Antonio also adopted a broad range of art movements in his work, from Pop Art to Surrealism." "As significant as Antonio's contributions to art illustration are, it is the man himself, his life and friendships, particularly with Juan Ramos, his constant collaborator, that define his oeuvre. They were supreme authors of la vida loca, as well as la dolce vita. For Antonio, life - bestial and sublime - surpassed any fiction. His illustrations and photographs capture the beautiful people who are part of celebrity folklore, and who were more often than not his friends: Jerry Hall (to whom he was engaged), Grace Jones, Mick Jagger, Audrey Hepburn, Andy Warhol (with whom he worked on Interview magazine), Paloma Picasso and Marlene Dietrich."--BOOK JACKET.
