Family-owned and run Taschen is the luxury art book publisher founded in Cologne, Germany in 1980. Well-loved for the hefty and highly collectible SUMO editions plus thousands of rich, picture-heavy titles by all our favorite artists, Taschen has been a progressive leader in bringing lesser known and provocative work to print and to the public.

ITEM WE LOVE

 

 

 

Sexy is as sexy does. Here, the Baby Sumo edition of the iconic Helmut Newton tome that offers 464 pages of the legendary German-Australian photographer's work. No one straddled art and commerce, or captured the essence of the phrase "sex sells" like Newton. This edition of 10,000 comes with a pedestal and handsome aluminum stand designed by Philippe Starck, who also knows a thing or two about setting a sensual mood. Anyone remember the lobby of the Royalton hotel in the 90s?
