49 - Paparazzi! Collective: Photographers, Stars, Artists. Flammarion, 2014. text in English. Paparazzi! explores the image-hunting profession in all its facets (historical, legal, economic, sociological...) and reveals its specific techniques and methods. From the first photographs of celebrities, popularized in the illustrated press in the early 20th century, to the most recent images disseminated in people magazines and on the Internet, the epic story of "paparazzism" retraced here sheds light on the complex and fascinating relationship established between photographer and prey. Between attraction and repulsion, distrust and connivance, the attitudes captured by the lens - raised hands, masked faces, clenched fists, outstretched fingers... - define a popular and subversive genre that, since the 1960s and 1970s, has continued to extend its influence beyond the photographic field. By associating the historical figures of paparazzi photography with the work of artists who have questioned this modern myth, this book aims to define the characteristics of a paparazzi aesthetic.
