Anne Deniau
Love Looks Not With the Eyes
Thirteen Years with Lee Alexander McQueen
Anne Deniau
Lee Alexander McQueen (1969–2010), whose design combined visionary aesthetics, emotional power, and extraordinary craft, was known for staging provocative shows that were as much performances as venues to display his couture creations.
Charged with energy, informed by history and culture, and filled with fresh concepts, McQueen’s shows have become legends not only of fashion but also of art.
Anne Deniau was the only photographer allowed backstage by McQueen for 13 years, beginning in September 1997 and ending with the final show in March 2010. She captured McQueen working with his close circle of collaborators including designer Sarah Burton, milliner Philip Treacy, jewelry designer Shaun Leane, and model Kate Moss to create his meticulously produced spectacles. Her book offers an inspiring homage, through the art of photography, to the work of a great artist.

Q&A

Occupation: Image Maker, Writer
Fav. city: New York, Berlin, Guethary, and the next one to discover.
Fav. scent: Orange blossom
Fav. book: Hm. “Lettres à un jeune poète”, Rilke. “Fragments d’un discours
amoureux”, Barthes. “Moon Palace”, Paul Auster. “Bonjour Tristesse”, Sagan
“Au sud de la frontière, à l’ouest du soleil” Murakami
Fav. designer: Lee McQueen, Albert Elbaz, Yves Saint-Laurent, Alaïa, Rei
Kawakubo. Philip Treacy for hats. Shaun Leane for jewels.
Fav. colour: I once asked this question to a great Japanese Artist, Moriguchi
Kako, he answered this “Can you imagine the suffering of the other colours if I
was responding to this question ?” Maybe black, because black is warm, deep, intense, infinite and soft like velvet.
Fav. drink: Champagne, Mojito, fresh water.
Fav. dish: grilled scallops. Anything with truffles.
Fav. actor/actress: Cate Blanchett, Juliette Binoche, Tilda Swinton, Benicio
Del Toro, Johnny Depp, Sean Penn, Susan Sarandon, Julianne Moore, Catherine

Fav. restaurant: Fanelli Café in NY, Ferdi & “la petite cour” in Paris, Hakkasan in London
What is your motto: I can fly if asked gently
The last movie you have seen: Moonrise kingdom
Who are your heroes: None. People I admire : Odysseus, maybe. Or Camille Claudel. People who are true to themselves.
When and where you the happiest: When there is some kind of harmony, with precious
friends and beloved ones, in a sheltering environment. It could happen anywhere... In favourite cities: NY, Berlin, London... Orin front of the ocean, for hours or days. When we are gathered with friends around art: Like enjoying “Einstein on the beach” in January in Amsterdam,
like in Roma with Sylvie Guillem in February, like in the last November with Michael Nyman in Mexico.
When doing nothing with somebody makes you happy anyway. The happiness of a presence. Doing nothing. Just being, together.
