Nars has never sought to hide the imperfections and oddities that give faces their personality, but rather to accentuate them in dramatic and surprising ways, mixing and matching a minimal array of products to strike a delicate balance between nakedness and artifice think bold, dark, painstakingly crafted eyes offset by clear, almost-bare skin. The arresting stylized images are shot in color against a rich black background with dramatic lighting, and explore themes of provocation, sharp humor, and unconventional beauty, always with an edgy dose of glamour. This volume is a true collector s item for style, culture, and photography connoisseurs alike.
