In this, the last book in a trilogy begun with Go-Sees and continued with Tracht, Juergen Teller concludes his examination of contemporary society's preconceived notions of beauty. More, a collaboration with supermodel Stephanie Seymour, is a collection of intimate portraits shot over the last two-and-a-half years at Seymour's homes in Connecticut, New York and Miami Beach. Through such unsettling images as close-ups of Seymour's lips and a depiction of her poised precariously on Jeff Koon's enormous "Puppy," Teller's trademark candor brings us closer to the inconsistencies that mark the life of this beauty icon.

MORE is less than I expected,
By Max "davidinscarboro@aol.com" (Scarborough, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Juergen Teller / Stephanie Seymour: MORE (Paperback)
I like the IDEA of this book but I found the end result to be less than breathtaking. Certainly there are a few (very few) spectacular pictures, but there are also a lot of very mundane ones. The photographer, Teller, seems to like the effect of a flashbulb bouncing of his subject's face creating glare and eliminating detail (most people would just say the pictures were overlit). There is no text in the book, just pictures; not the text is really required, but it's one more thing that you aren't getting for your money. Had the book been a lot cheaper I wouldn't be complaining, but overall I get the impression that this ... book was slapped together in just a few days.
