EGOISTE fashion magazine # 16 ~ Featured... This issue is dedicated entirely to multidisciplinary artist James Thiérrée, featuring photography by Paolo Roversi. Egoïste is a high-end, rare French cultural review known for long production gaps, massive-scale pages, and contributions from world-class photographers and writers. James Thierree is the grandson of silent film legend Charlie Chaplin and the son of circus creators Jean-Baptiste Thiérrée and Victoria Chaplin. He creates surreal, dreamlike physical theatre, blending acrobatics, dance, and illusion. Égoïste is a French photography magazine published irregularly, founded in 1977. Initially intended to be a quarterly publication, it is still published sporadically. However, this magazine, with its unusual format and advertising from major clothing and luxury brands (perfumes, watches, etc.), has attracted celebrated photographers (Helmut Newton, Richard Avedon, Bettina Rheims, etc.), who dedicate full black and white pages to their work. It has also garnered short columns from writers, including Marguerite Duras, Cioran, Françoise Sagan, William Styron, Jean d'Ormesson, Michel Tournier, Bernard-Henri Lévy, François Nourissier, and others. It has achieved cult status. Each issue is a collector's item. All advertising was created exclusively for this magazine. Approx 30 x 40 cm (16 x 12 inches) and opens out to 60 x4 0 double page spreads Issue number 16 Volume 2 / Tome II 2011 Published in France French text First edition
