Frenchie King aka Les Petroleuses, Shalako and Viva
Maria. ACC Art Books and Iconic Images are proud to present the

on 10 January 2016, the world lost a musical hero. But his legacy

from Ziggy to the Thin White Duke - two facts never changed: he was
an innovator; and photographers adored him. This book pays homage
to this ultimate icon.

stay at Paul Newman's home in Connecticut; from working on set with
Bernardo Bertolucci, Werner Herzog, Steven Spielberg and Sydney
Pollack, to lounging poolside with Raquel Welch; Sereny reveals her
favourite moments from working behind the lens. This is the first
photographic retrospective of Sereny's star-studded career,
including nearly 100 never-before-seen images complemented by Eva's
own stories.
