Herb
1978 fotografierte der Möbelverkäufer Herb Ritts während einer Reifenpanne seinen Freund, den damals unbekannten Schauspieler Richard Gere. "Ich schickte Gere dann die Negative und vergaß die Sache", erzählt Ritts heute. "Was wusste ich schon? Ich war schließlich kein Fotograf." Richard Gere war von den Fotos so begeistert, dass er sie seinem Agenten gab. Drei Monate später erschienen die Bilder in den damals wichtigsten Magazinen wie "Vogue" und "Esquire". Bald darauf ließ "Mademoiselle" anfragen, ob Ritts nicht Brooke Shields oder Elizabeth Taylor fotografieren wolle. "Ich habe denen nicht gesagt, dass ich kein Fotograf bin."

Herb is dead
The elegance and sensuality of Herb Ritts' vision pervades his portraits and fashion studies as well as his nudes. His art is an evocation of glamour and sleek, refined beauty. Ritts fuses the classical traditions of photography with a flesh modern idiom.

Fotograf Herb Ritts gestorben
Der amerikanische Mode- und Society-Fotograf Herb Ritts ist im Alter von 50 Jahren an den Folgen einer Lungenentzündunggestorben. Bekannt wurde Ritts vor allem durch seine scharf konturierten Schwarzweißbilder von prominenten Zeitgenossen, die den jeweiligen Zeitgeist perfekt wiederzugeben schienen und mit denen er den kalifornischen Körperkult geradezu zelebrierte.

Gehet hin und lomographiert!
Es begab sich zu Prag im Jahre 1992, da einem jungen Innsbrucker namens Matthias Fiegl eine kleine russische Kompaktkamera in die Hände fiel. Er brachte sein Fundstück mit nachhause, in seine Wiener Wohngemeinschaft, wo alsbald alle begannen, wild mit der Lomo drauflos zu knipsen. Die Ergebnisse der Herumknipserei wurden in der Küche aufgehängt und entfachten ein Lomo-Fieber bei all denjenigen, die die Bilder zu sehen bekamen.
