André Carrara, Regards

Regards spans four decades of the extraordinary professional career of a photographer whose discretion and elegance are reflected in this dedicated retrospective: a tribute to womanhood, to women in all their diversity, showcasing their timelessness, universality, sophistication, boldness, seductiveness, provocativeness and even at times their inaccessibility. A hymn exalting their beauty. 

This one-of-a-kind book, offering numerous iconic images, also delicately narrates how perception of this femininity has evolved over the years. But above all else, this book tells the story of a man’s love for women, who have always left him fascinated, amazed, overwhelmed and inspired. 

This work is a confession of love for what women represent to him, a testimonial to how they move the photographer, who has never ceased to admire them with passion.
