I assisted SK for 2 years from 92-94. He was a great guy then too. Unpretentious! We use to shoot out of Industria super studio a lot at the time. We sometimes end up sharing Industria's large space with Steven Meisel. We shoot in stage 1 or 2 and the other Steven would shoot in stage 4. Good times! I remember Meisel shooting Peggi Moffitt and we were watching him shoot from stage one's window.
Does anyone really believe Steven Klein has to prove anything? SK does not even calls himself an artist ; but you can sure recognize his style as oppose as La Chapelle who bites most of anything he doe including the basis for his work which is a total copy of Jean Paul Goude style. JPG is the photographer behind Grace Jones artistic vision
i havent studied JPG's style thoroughly but i'd say LaChapelle's style is a little bit more surreal. And compared to SK he's more dynamic, and his pictures tell a simpler story. SK seems a little bit more static and occult, low paced and less aggressive.needless to say i'd be happy to be somewhere in between these 2, or even mildly close to them as both are geniuses, along with JPG

Not even one photo gave me the bumps.
One of most influentials ?? Do Americans ever pass their homeland borders in search of quality i really ask myself !!!!
Better try Erwin Olaf or Anton Corbijn photos/videos for the real deal. Perhaps its because i have seen a lot and learned to be critical. Good intentions and neutral ways should not end in conservative photos. No, its progressive photography i want to see !
You silly naive boy..his purpose is to sell a product not provicate progressivley. He, just like Madonna, walks the thin line of artist/business instrument.
So, you actually do suffer a lag of objectivity. Which brings me back to my first comment (unless you want to play it really silly) Ha ha, anything, but don't dare to call this high end ART !
I meant seeing Madonna's CROTCH is like seeing an old friend, If it were not for Madonna and other famous subjects I doubt we would know little of this man's work. But , together it's symbiotic sweetness.
steven klein is serious about what he does and his passion is honest. He is very focused and is a true photographer in a world of copycats. I know, I used to assist him. Someone like steven is born not made. cheers!
@stingrayglobal I also know Steven, but from the horse world. I actually used to see him close to daily in the early '90's; I worked at the farm he boarded his horse. What always impressed me about him was his utter lack of pretense. He is a genuine, authentic man.
I adore him. He's a BRILLIANT photographer and an even more amazing man. He took me to my first ever fashion show, Marc Jacobs. He sees the world like no other.
i used to be lachapelle's biggest fan, but his work on commenting on pop culture has now practically become pop culture itself, i still love steven klein's stuff and it feels so much deeper and interesting
this is the type of stuff i dream of making,,,, love it

There aren't ANY close-up shots of Madonna's crotch. Another IDIOT trying to be clever I suppose...
