David LaChapelle for FLAUNT Magazine - 25th Anniversary Issue

[phantasmas 9,926]

"David LaChapelle is an artist whose journey is irrefutably unparalleled. But what is irrefutable artistry? For many, it is instant recognition of an unmatched aesthetic. For others, the notion anchors in a continual evolution of craft and practice, innovation. For all, though, it’s about ceaselessness—a dogged continuation of self-expression, however heroized, humbled, or hurt by the lived experience one might become."

I went to his exhibit in the NYC Fotografiska and his work up close is otherworldly. If you ever get the chance to see anything of his in real life GO

Sameeeee, her best shoot IMO. Someone needs to leak it next after the Nick Knight free for all.

There are tons of photos from it, but sadly they’re super LQ previews

I’d love for him to work with pop girlies singers again, his style is so so barroque so stylished but at the same time repellent

[Addison Rae 15,128]

love him but i keep thinking about that ugly photoshoot he did with the kardashian’s in the late 00s and it sends me everytime

Kinda reminds me of that shoot he did with Gaga with the pink afro wig.
