About the auction
The New York fashion and art magazine VISIONAIRE was launched in 1991 and has since served as a source of inspiration and playground for the most influential creatives of our time. The strictly limited magazines are a mirror of contemporary culture and break down the boundaries between art, fashion and design. Fashion houses like Louis Vuitton and Hermès collaborate with photographers like Juergen Teller, Ellen von Unwerth and David LaChapelle; creative greats like Karl Lagerfeld and David Bowie curate artists like Yayoi Kusama, Wolfgang Tillmans, Tony Oursler, Tracey Emin, Elizabeth Peyton and Cindy Sherman. A colorful firework of unique visionary ideas.
