when they cemented the reputation of the artist behind them. was one of the world's leading photographers he hated superficial photos he believed an image should show a person's not personality. they have developed a technology. with which you can remove every spark of life a person may have had man or woman. that was visible in their face things that are actually positive because it can all be removed these days you can reduce any person to 0. i wanted to resist about i believe that if you have the courage to be yourself then you are beautiful. tina turner penelope cruz brad pitt and richard gere just a few of the big names in show business you have modeled for the. $27.00 tina retrospective that munich's showed more than $200.00. in banks most iconic goods
