Snapped by me.

I can´t stand Kanye but I love this cover, the eerie vibe is quite attractive.

Anything interesting inside, Diesel?

 

[GIVENCHYlover]

Very very cool :cool2:

I actually adore Kanye as an recording artist, but I loathe him as some self-appointed fashion visionary, and I loathe this shot.

Funny how I thought Juergen was so fresh back in the late-90s and early 2000s, especially when he was working with Helmut and Melanie. NowI can't stand his "work"-- which has gone absolutely nowhere and he's just a prized brand now, nothing more. It's like Benicio del Toro's character Benny told Jeffrey Wright's character Basquiat in the amazing film Basquiat: "You keep doing what you're doing until you're famous for it, then you just keep on doing it..." And that's all Juergen's been doing. Good for him I suppose for being able to not bothering to make an effort nowadays but still getting the acclaim and blue-chip accounts. Benny was right.

 

[TeeVanity]

Yeah it's a pretty neat cover.

 

[lewak]

Such a great cover

Would be even better if he was even further away from camera perhaps obscured by a grave stone...

Juergen Teller marry me :

 

[VogueGirl8910]

Good cover, but i hate this man.

 

[orchidee]

I'm only a fan of his music, not his personality/personal life/general image that he puts forth. Surprisingly, it's a good cover...although I'm sure we all just like it so much because you can barely tell it's him lol

 

[ErnstLudwig]

graveyard & Salix babylonica = how I feel about him.

But the "solitary" joke is a good one, rather the Joseph Beuys of the online age

 

[Benn98]

What an amazing shot, must get this cover. I do wish it was someone else, cannot stand this guy! And I'm not anticipating that feature.

 

[gossiping]

i just can't take him seriously, sorry... he is NOT a fashion icon or god or whatever he claims to be

 

[MON]

Brilliant concept... hate the who's in it.

 

[hexagon sun]

No thanks... I'm usually pretty neutral when it comes to anything Kanye related, but this is so pretentious.

 

[mistress_f]

the cover is great

putting kanye in context (the title, the imagery), though, makes me laugh

 

[Fancyfree]

I think Kanye is artist,I lovr his music.

[Benn98]

So, while he mustve been presumably strolling with Kim for the paps, Teller hijacked him for this graveyard shoot? The editorial pictures are actually a let down for me, and he looks terribly, terribly bad in the last shot.

 

[kokobombon]

I´d like the pics on the cemetery if it wasn´t for him

 

[lewak]

Do you think Juergen's trying to get across the notion that he could be visiting his mother's grave?

Tbh I cant be bothered to read anything about him since he became an extension of lame/ugly Kardashian World
