Instagram post 2259626991001131640_6860975142 David LaChapelle is known internationally for his exceptional talent in combining a unique hyper-realistic aesthetic with profound social messages. LaChapelle's photography career began in the 1980's when he began showing his artwork in New York City galleries. His work caught the eye of Andy Warhol, who offered him his first job as a photographer at Interview Magazine. His photographs of celebrities in Interview garnered positive attention, and before long he was shooting for a variety of top editorial publications and creating some of the most memorable advertising campaigns of his generation. • #famousamsterdam #art #artwork#amsterdam #artist #artgallery#instaart #gallery #collectibles #design#artlover #artlovers #artistic #artshop#artoftheday #artstagram #artlife#artinfo #onlineartsales #onlineart#onlineartgallery #myart #creative#artshopping #collectiblesforsale#collectiblestore #davidlachapelle#lachapelle #davidlachapellestudio#davidlachapellestyle

Instagram post 2254598270141792088_6860975142 Takashi Murakami is one of the leading contemporary Japanese artists and a favourite of international collectors. In his work he combines traditional Japanese imagery with (Japanese) pop culture. Murakami’s distinctive “Superflat” style challenges our ideas on secular and religious visual culture, while it is often both a commentary on, as well as a homage to the history of art. • #famousamsterdam #art #artwork #amsterdam #artist #artgallery #instaart #gallery #collectibles #design #artlover #artlovers #artistic #artshop #artoftheday  #artstagram #artlife #artinfo #onlineartsales #onlineart #onlineartgallery #myart #creative #artshopping #collectiblesforsale #collectiblestore #takashimurakami #murakami #murakamitakashi #murakamiquotes

Instagram post 2244459305766219142_6860975142 JR, a French photographer and street artist whose exact identity is not confirmed, described himself as a photograffeur. He creates large black and white photographic images in public locations, in a manner similar to the appropriation of the build environment by graffiti artists. Thanks to his photographic collage technique, he exhibits his work free of charge on the walls of the whole world – attracting the attention of those who do not usually go to museums. • #famousamsterdam #art #artwork #amsterdam #artist #artgallery #instaart #gallery #collectibles #design #artlover #artlovers #artistic #artshop #artoftheday #artstagram #artlife #artinfo #onlineartsales #onlineart #onlineartgallery #myart #creative #artshopping #collectiblesforsale #collectiblestore #jr #jrartist #theskateroom #skateboards
Instagram post 2244457419637906749_6860975142 We are very proud to announce new skateboard decks coming in next week at Famous! • In 2016, JR was invited to the Musée du Louvre and he announced that he would make the museum’s famous glass Pyramid disappear. To achieve that, JR completely covered the structure with historical photographs pre-dating its construction. What resulted was a surprising anamorphosis: the museum’s forgotten former entrance bursting forth into the present and reclaiming its former glory. We are left to wonder whether we attach meaning to the wrong things, or simply are too quick to forget. • An other installation from JR, Ellis Island, featured large archival photographs of immigrants displayed throughout the island's abandoned hospital. For this project, JR decided to photograph recent immigrants and paste their images on the city’s streets on Flatiron plaza (the heart of Manhattan), where they and other immigrants are often invisible. • We expect these amazing skateboard decks arrive at Famous in two weeks!

Instagram post 2244456512670050170_6860975142 After we have seen the Oscars last week, we are a bigger fan of JR even more! Several of the night’s biggest stars partied away at entertainment mogul Guy Oseary and Madonna’s “The Party,” where JR took special photos of some of the winners. Among which Renee Zellweger, Robert De Niro and Laura Dern (copyright @ JR). • #famousamsterdam #art #artwork #amsterdam #artist #artgallery #instaart #gallery #collectibles #design #artlover #artlovers #artistic #artshop #artoftheday #artstagram #artlife #artinfo #onlineartsales #onlineart #onlineartgallery #myart #creative #artshopping #collectiblesforsale #collectiblestore #jr #jrartist #theskateroom #skateboards
Instagram post 2238566610107612427_6860975142 MILES ALDRIDGE | Born in 1964, London, Miles Aldridge is a British fashion photographer. • Best known for his cinematic images of women, Aldridge’s work is often brightly lit by fluorescent colors and depicts a world that is at once glamorous and surreal. He aggressively confronts themes of religion, popular culture, and 1950s Americana through his signature brand of moody imagery and dark humor. His work has since appeared in many publications, including W magazine, Vogue, The New York Times, Harper’s Bazaae, and The New Yorker. His photographs are also held in numerous permanent collections including the National Portrait Gallery in London, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, and the International Center of Photography in New York. • • #famousamsterdam #art #artwork #amsterdam #artist #artgallery #instaart #gallery #collectibles #design #artlover #artlovers #artistic #artshop #artoftheday #artstagram #artlife #artinfo #onlineartsales #onlineart #onlineartgallery #myart #creative #artshopping #collectiblesforsale #collectiblestore #milesaldridge #milesaldridgephotography #milesaldridgeexhibition #milesaldridgeart
Instagram post 2238566007075557234_6860975142 MILES ALDRIDGE BOOK - INCLUDING UNQIUE POLAROID | The first monograph from the brilliant fashion photographer Miles Aldridge. With a cinematic approach to fashion photography, Aldridge creates singular scenes with psychologically complex characters in surreal and fantastic settings. His brilliant, candy-colored images engage viewers with an appealing mix of overt sexuality and sweetness. No detail is left uncovered in his eye-popping, erotically charged fashion photographs, which transform slightly sordid scenarios into acid-hued glamour. Each photograph is a complex world unto itself, and these lush images invite viewers to linger, for there is always something else to see, some deeper layer of meaning to uncover. With deliciously naughty scenes and lushly evocative photography, this book lures readers into Aldridge’s irresistible world. • For more information, please contact us at info@famous.nl or visit our website https://famous.nl/product/i-only-want-you-to-love-me-including-unique-polaroid-caviar/. • #famousamsterdam #art #artwork #amsterdam #artist #artgallery #instaart #gallery #collectibles #design #artlover #artlovers #artistic #artshop #artoftheday #artstagram #artlife #artinfo #onlineartsales #onlineart #onlineartgallery #myart #creative #artshopping #collectiblesforsale #collectiblestore #milesaldridge #milesaldridgephotography #milesaldridgeexhibition #milesaldridgeart

Instagram post 2237888578535359990_6860975142 DAIDO MORIYAMA | Tokyo-based Japanese artist Daido Moriyama (*1938, Ikeda-City, Osaka) initially trained in graphic design before taking up photography. He trained as an assistant under Takeji Iwamiya and Eikoh Hosoe. Moriyama has had a radical impact on the photographic and art world in both Japan and in the West, with his expressive style of "are, bure, boke" (rough, blurred and out-of-focus) as well as the debut of recent colour work taken in Tokyo, and his typical style of quick snapshots without looking in the viewfinder. #famousamsterdam #art #artwork#amsterdam #artist #artgallery #instaart #gallery #collectibles #design #artlover #artlovers #artistic #artshop #artoftheday#artstagram #artlife#artinfo#onlineartsales #onlineart#onlineartgallery #myart #creative#artshopping#collectiblesforsale#collectiblestore#daidomoriyama #daidomoriyamaphoto #skateboard #rijksmuseum
