Roberto Bolle is an Italian treasure and we are very proud of him. It's not the first time I feature him in my journal, but this time it's even more right to do so, since he has a photographic book out by Bruce Weber who is also one of the best photographer out there (all the famous Abercrombie & Fitch catalogues are by him).
Amazon: Roberto Bolle: An Athlete in Tights
First recognized by Rudolf Nureyev, Roberto Bolle is renowned for his athletic ability, stylistic grace and a sizzling movie star presence. Possessing broad appeal, his performances draw acclaim from the dance world and general public alike. This stunning book is the culmination of a three-year collaboration between Bolle and the photogrpahic superstar Bruce Weber. Weber's masterful images capture the dazzling charisma of a world-class talent.
The book features writing from Bolle, as well as texts by Elsa Morante and illustrations by Paul Cadmus and Jeremiah Goodman.
