Riassunto

This unique book draws together two decade's worth of work by the ubiquitous British photographer Rankin. Acting as a retrospective, Visually Hungry documents the iconic creative genius throughout an extraordinary career in which he has shot many of the world's leading personalities, models and celebrities. This collection spans Rankin's extensive back catalogue, including seminal work from his early career, right through to his era-defining portraiture, genre-challenging fashion and his impossibly erotic nudes. It is - in short - a selection of Rankin's favourites.

L'autore

Rankin has gained international recognition as a photographer, publisher, and most recently film director, although he is perhaps best known for being stubbornly himself.

His most recent campaigns have been for Morgan, Dove Firming Lotion print and the TVC campaign that features normal women, and not models. Dazed Film & TV has produced cross-platform, multi-genre projects and Rankin has produced television documentaries and drama, shorts and commercials. He has a
