ハーブリッツやリチャード・アベドンが亡くなり、ファッション写真界にも巨匠と呼ばれる人がだんだんといなくなってきた。
そんな中で、デビット・ラシャペルは、ファッション写真の新しい今のあり方の可能性を十分に感じさせると思う。
ビビットな色彩、意表をつく斬新な構成、ハイテク技術の多用など、モノクロで大胆な構図を主として来た今までのファッション写真と比べて、まさしく、今風である。
ファッション写真で、しばらく、一冊見終えて満足のいくものがなかった中で、この写真集は、久しぶりに堪能できた。最近では、最高の写真集の一つといえる。

LaChapelle has won numerous awards-- Best New Photographer by American Photo & French Photo; Photographer of the Year from VH-1;an Eisie Award from Life in two different categories; Best Applied Photographer of the Year Award from the Int.

For all those readers and photography fans that liked LaChapelle's first catalogue "David LaChapelle" by Davide Faccioli they will love this volume. For one reason it contains almost all the photographs that were included in that small format catalogue. That was the only flaw with the earlier collection of LaChapelle's distinctive work. This volume reproduces those images plus many more in a much larger format so that they can be more easily seen, studied and enjoyed.
The Concept Creator and Photographer provide the readers with a nice overview of his approach to life and his work. There is little or no text in most of his books. "I decided to call this book `Hotel LaChapelle' because almost all the photos in it were conceived of and made while in hotel rooms...And when people come for a photo session with me, they are giving themselves over, sort of checking in."
This surprised me a bit because from the cover on the boxed book I expected to see a variation of artist Edward Hopper's voyeuristic subway rider views into passing hotel and apartment windows. That expectation was totally wrong. Although feeling slightly mislead by the box cover picture, I wasn't disappointed in this book. It was also helpful to learn from the photographer about the large crew of regulars he uses for his complicated shoots. LaChapelle isn't a street shooter. He sets up entire fantasy worlds worthy of Hollywood Movie Set Designers.
It was also fascinating to learn how much the photographer dislikes most of the celebrity publicists that often veto his creative ideas. "The smartest celebrities are the ones who hire...publicists who happen to understand a creative moment...because they realize the importance of a still image as a visual record of their time and place as a celebrity in the culture, and as a tangible thing you can hold in your hand."
"A lot of the pictures in this book exist only because there was no interference...Which is a big reason to do a collection in a book...A book is a permanent record."
As usual, LaChapelle has produced some more wonderful visual puns, satires, surreal environments and political parody. And once again, most of the subjects in his portraits and scenes are like colorful cartoon characters or kinky, shiny plastic-looking models from a weird, far-side wax museum. Even the most beautiful women in the world who are some of his subjects seem to have been photographed in such a way as they aren't the slightest bit sexy or desirable even when scantily dressed in lingerie or completely nude.
Despite that curious fact, this is still an excellent photography book. It's much better than it's immediate predecessor "LaChapelle Land."
After checking out LaChapelle's website I've decided he may be in the middle of "pulling a Stanley Kubrick." I can easily see him using his current visualizing and set designing skills to make motion pictures. Stanley Kubrick was also a successful teenage still photographer who worked for LOOK Magazine before he became a motion picture legend. I can easily see LaChapelle eventually making films of the caliber of Kubrick's "Clockwork Orange", "Dr. Strangelove", "2001: A Space Odyssey" or "The Shining." He is well known to many film celebrities and their agents and staffs. He already has access to many of the actors in the cinema world and that would be extremely helpful to a would-be film director.
