Visionaire 61, the largest magazine ever published in the world (Guinness record), exposed at colette!

Visionaire was founded in 1991 a limited-edition multi-format fashion and art publication. It has featured the world’s leading artists, photographers, designers, filmmakers, musicians, and cultural icons. Visionaire is in the permanent library collections of The Museum of Modern Art, The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, The Smithsonian Institution, The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Instituto Tomie Ohtake, and The New York Public Library. Published 3 times a year, Visionaire features a different theme and format with each issue. Artists work in collaboration with Visionaire to produce their personal interpretations on a theme, and are given unparalleled freedom to push Visionaire’s original formats.

No contemporary figure symbolizes LARGER THAN LIFE more than global pop phenom Lady Gaga, who graces the front and back covers in two stunning portraits by photographers Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin. Other contributors to the issue include photographers Steven Klein, Steven Meisel, Mario Sorrenti, and Bruce Weber; artists Doug Aitken, Maurizio Cattelan & Pierpaolo Ferrari, Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Ryan McGinley, Marilyn Minter, Rob Pruitt, Ed Ruscha, Tom Sachs, Sam Taylor-Wood, Josephine Meckseper & Richard Phillips, Marina Abramovic & Martin Schoeller, Guido Mocafico, and Massimo Vitali; fashion designer and photographer Karl Lagerfeld; and filmmaker Ridley Scott. Each one takes on LARGER THAN LIFE in their own signature style.
