shame on you, Visionaire team!
the issue costs itself 250 usd (official price off their site, so plus shipping: 100 - 300 usd? as it was with Mert and Marcus issue, shipping doesnt cost such money either way)... and all pictures from that issue are out-takes from old contribution and courtesy of different galleries what we`ve seen so many times. While almost all their issues were exlusively shot for visionaire. yep, guys you`re working out with colorisation in photoshop, bravo!i just don`t think what such breakdown work worths 250 usd or become a collectible item at least (regardless its even more limited edition than lately (3000 copies)...

one day i will have enough money to buy Visionaire.

However I also agree that for a magazine that so ridiculously expensive, the photos should not be reprints.

Actually what is the theme for this edition?? Photoshop? Or colorisation?? It's not that interested!

 

[VogueParisLover]

The theme is that the photos transform when it comes it contact with sunlight. It's not the best Visionaire...

 

[surrealseven]

I'm not impressed

 

[vogue28]

^Me neither. Not for the price of it anyway.

Carmen has such a long neck.

 

[surrealseven]

^ The photos of Carmen by Inez & Vinoodh is supposedly to resemble the phallic organ of the male, that's why

This issue is totally not worth it, I don't know if they are making any money at all, the effects are cheesy and the pictures are not exclusive

Too bad they only used reprints but the concept is quite interesting.
