His approach to this work has been hailed as defining a new way of portrait photography with the emphasis on his guiding principle that imperfection is closer to life than perfection. From his humble beginnings as a music fan, he developed into an important globally heard voice in the photography world. For decades he has been a collaborator with many musicians such as Tom Waits, U2, Nick Cave, Metallica, Herbert Grönemeyer, R.E.M. and in this case Depeche Mode. Even after making films with the likes of George Clooney, Robert Pattinson or Philip Seymour Hofmann, he always returned to his first love, photography. He has had many museum shows over the years and resides in Amsterdam. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taschen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43138287665267,"sku":"9.78384E+12","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_97fe3be7-58d0-4ed1-9606-7c1719109a47.jpg?v=1750246703","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/depeche-mode-by-anton-corbijn-9783836597999","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
