Juergen Teller: Zimmermann a surreal fashion fairy tale
Juergen Teller, the legendary German photographer who joined fashion and art in his work on a genius way, will release on the 31St of Mai 2010 his latest photography book called: “Zimmerman”. This book will feature his new photo series which documents his muse the supermodel Raquel Zimmermann engaging in family events and interacting with Teller’s native environment in Bubenreuth, Southern Germany. Holding true to his signature snapshot aesthetic while nonetheless managing to construct what he describes as a “surreal fairy tale”, a narrative akin in style to the Gothic and dramatic Brothers Grimm fairy tales.
Teller captures Zimmermann in a state of seeming abandon, in the woods or lying semi-nude on the family table during a meal. It are suggestive images, elegantly dressed up with a touch of eroticism, and which tell a fashion tale which is going beyond conventional glamour.

Juergen Teller Go-Sees interview
An already older but still interesting video interview with photographer Juergen Teller for TateShots, the Youtube channel of the Tate Modern Art gallery.
Juergen Teller turned his lens on the fashion industry with his Go-Sees series. Weary of the hype generated by model agencies desperate to sell him the ‘next big thing’, he decided to take the picture of every girl that came to see him on the doorstep of his studio. In this interview, Teller tells Tateshots how the resulting photographs expose the troubling power of the male photographer.
