Book synopsis

Show and tell. Ten years after his much-celebrated "A Private View", photographer Sante d'Orazio is back with a second volume of his illustrated diary-cum-scrapbook, covering the period from 1997 to 2008. Totally uncensored and deliciously risque, d'Orazio's collage-style diary entries - one day per page, with extra photos added in-between - are packed with photos of celebrities, models, musicians, actors, and artists in all states of dress and undress, surrounded with candid and intimate handwritten observations. In many cases d'Orazio juxtaposes outtakes with famous images published in magazines such as "Playboy" and "Interview". All-night parties and intense photo sessions are just the daily grinds of d'Orazio's jet-setting life, which he openly shares with readers wishing to take a peek behind closed doors where the glitterati let loose. Black and white alternates with color, candid with posed, painting a dynamic tableau of moods and styles and revealing d'Orazio as a photographer with a keen eye for stimulating portraiture. It is rare to have such unlimited access to the circles in which d'Orazio moves, and even rarer to have an uncanny ability to capture it so perfectly in words and pictures.
