Presented in an innovative and original circular binding, The Order of Things is a collection of new and unseen work from photographer Norbert Schoerner, commissioned exclusively for Phaidon Press. Incorporating images from Japan and London, alongside a series of portraits and personal photographic stories, it is a book that transforms itself into a surrealist style game without beginning or end. The book is bound so that the pages fan out into a circle, creating a continuous flow of images. Throughout, stories and images fold into one another to form a bizarre narrative and kaleidoscopic journey that defines Schoerner's photographic style.
Norbert Schoerner is one of the most proficient and talented fashion photographers at work today, whose image-making consistently redefines the parameters of fashion. His recent advertising projects for both Prada and Miu Miu with designer David James, the Art Director for both companies -- and also Norbert Schoerner's collaborator in the design of The Order of Things -- have been recognized by the industry as masterpieces of their genre. Schoerner has also built up a reputation as an accomplished reportage photographer and artist, with a number of solo exhibitions.
A photographic tour de force, an art object, a book unlike any other, The Order of Things is an entirely unique and original concept.
