Produktinformationen zu „Birth of a Clown “
Klappentext zu „Birth of a Clown “
In 1947 the International Circus Clowns' Club began keeping a record of its member clowns' make-up. Each uniquemake-up design was painted onto an emptied chicken egg that was catalogued and used to trademark the identitiesof clowns including the famous Coco and Grimaldi. Stan Bult, founder of the club, painstakingly painted the earliestdesigns by hand himself. Birth of a Clown is Sam Taylor-Johnson's photographic documentation of these fascinatingobjects, now part of the Clowns' Gallery and Museum in Somerset. Taylor-Johnson stumbled onto the museum bychance and has now preserved these eccentric portraits-sometimes hilarious, sometimes sad-in book form.
