Reseña del libro "Michael Bolton (en Inglés)"
The quintessential collection of iconic photographs and poignant texts that reveal the visual and cultural legacy of American icon Michael Bolton as captured by longtime collaborator, renowned photographer, and dear friend Timothy White. In 1987, celebrity photographer Timothy White got a call from American musician Michael Bolotin's (now Bolton) record company asking him to work on a photo shoot. When Bolton came over to his studio, Timothy was struck by his calm persona, dry wit, and superb sense of humor. The two immediately hit it off. The resulting full-of-life photographs that captured Bolton's charisma and charm marked the start of not only a professional but also a personal relationship that would come to establish Bolton's visual legacy and identity. Michael Bolton contains White's handpicked collection of cinematic photographs featuring Bolton, on view together for the first time ever. The wide range of works include: Bolton with his trademark wavy locks, pictures in his breathtaking neoclassical home, classic editorial studio shots, and heartwarming selections from shoots across a variety of urban and rural landscapes. The work spans decades, featuring Bolton at all stages of his career. Original quotes from celebrity friends are peppered throughout the book's pages and highlight Bolton's impact on a range of famous lives and on wider society. Dolly Parton notes how Bolton "stole her heart" the first time she heard him sing, Smokey Robinson declares Bolton "one of the greatest singers in life", and The Lonely Island coin Michael a National Treasure. Additional mash notes from Kelly Clarkson, John Oliver, Zooey Deschanel, and Andre Agassi, to name a few, fill out the testimonials of love. Bolton and White themselves contribute text, as well as legendary Record Executive, Clive Davis. Chock-full of cinematic visuals and touching, personal texts that reveal a side of the enigmatic megastar that has never been presented before, the book portrays a comprehensive visual overview of the beloved performer and his impact on popular culture, while also highlighting an intimate collaboration between two exemplars of their respective talent fields.
