THE WES ANDERSON COLLECTION.


What a find: today i stumbled on this amazing book The Wes Anderson Collection.
Being a HUGE fan of his work i was of course pretty excited about this guided tour of the director world, full of unpublished photos, artwork and ephemera.

The interview and images are woven together in a meticulously designed book that captures the spirit of his films: melancholy and playful, wise and childish—and thoroughly original.” - Abrams Books.

Not being able to put my hands on the material object yet i was really happy with how the author Matt Zoller Seitz expands the book into the website, with a series of video essays guiding us through the  seven chapters based on Anderson's movies Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic, The Darjeeling Limites, Fantastic Mr. Fox and Moonrise Kingdom, you should have a look!
