Book Description

Publication Date: March 15, 2000

A self-portrait of Kylie Minogue featuring her many different personas, public and private, both reflected in the eyes of others and as seen by herself. Kylie combines collaborative portrayals alongside media representations to convey the strange fragmentation of self that occurs in the lives of international media icons. This personal book, prefaced by Kylie, includes a text developed through conversation with her by renowned music journalist Chris Heath. Alongside this, artists, photographers, writers, academics, pop stars and actors give their response to Kylie in words and pictures. The book also includes visual material taken from Kylie's own archives, dating from early "Neighbours" memorabilia documenting the worldwide Charlene phenomenon such as telephone cards and t-shirts, to fan snapshots, off-the-cuff portraits, a visual discography, as well as more recent photographic shoots with some of the world's top photographers including Ellen von Unwerth and Stephanie Sednaoui.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Spectacular Record of a Great Star, February 2, 2001

Kevin Killian (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Kylie (Hardcover)

Wow! Page after oversized page of the most imaginative, beautiful and kooky photographs ever made of any one performing artist. Good work by all concerned, especially by Kylie Minogue who lets herself, in this compilation, be photographed and otherwise rendered in a variety of bizarre and embarrassing ways, all in the name of art. And the artists involved are fantastic, the creme de la creme of the new British and European avant-garde, including Wolfgang Tillmans, Sam Taylor-Wood, Pierre et Gilles, and so many more. In this way Minogue pokes fun at herself as a kind of cultural Gumby figure, infinitely pliant and plastic, the object of fantasy and yet somehow the subject of her own demesne. Viva Kylie Minogue--vivat, vivat Regina!

As a loyal fan, I can honestly say that Kylie shines bright in her book "Kylie". From the creative book design and slipcover, to the wonderful collection of beautiful photos, this compilation of her life and many perspectives is extraordinary and breath-taking. I recommend this book highly.
