Ron Galella-the uncrowned king of the paparazzi.
Ron Galella (*1931 in the Bronx) moved to Los Angeles in his early twenties, where he trained as a photojournalist. In his free time he took pictures of the stars arriving at film premieres, selling them to the National Enquirer and Fotoplay. His photos are snapshots rather than portraits-spontaneous, not staged, and extraordinarily authentic. Whether Jacqueline Kennedy, Marlon Brando, Greta Garbo, Andy Warhol, Sean Penn, Robert Redford, Muhammad Ali, Madonna, Mick Jagger, or Audrey Hepburn-Galella managed to get them all in front of his lens. In addition to physical assaults, his photographic approach also caused him to be sued-he had to promise Jacqueline Kennedy not to take another picture of her again as long as he lived. Andy Warhol, on the other hand, adored him, and Elizabeth Taylor used his images in her biography.
In addition to his spontaneous paparazzi photographs, Galella also took staged pictures, commissioned by magazines such as Time, Rolling Stone, VOGUE or Vanity Fair. The publication presents more than one hundred of his astounding photos.
Exhibition schedule: C/O Berlin, December 10, 2011-February 26, 2012
This book is bound with an open book spine that gives a good layflat behaviour. This rough look contrasts intentionally with the noble three sided gilt edging.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neu -Ron Galella - der ungekrönte König der Paparazzi! Für seine Undercover-Aktionen war Ron Galella kein Aufwand, kein Risiko zu hoch. Um die Prominenten in ihrer natürlichen Umgebung im richtigen Moment zu erwischen, ging er vor wie ein Detektiv, geduldig, ausdauernd, gerissen. Andy Warhol verehrte ihn, Jackie Onassis verklagte ihn, Marlon Brando brach ihm den Kiefer. Dennoch hat er hat sie alle vor sein Objektiv bekommen. Seine Bilder sind eher Schnappschüsse denn Porträts. Spontan, nicht gestellt und daher außerordentlich authentisch. Anders als bei anderen Vertretern seines Metiers sehen die Stars bei ihm gut aus. Ungeachtet dessen gilt sein Interesse dem Geheimnisvollen der Stars jenseits von Pose und Maske. Was verbirgt sich hinter deren glamourösem Leben Wie sind diese Menschen aus der Nähe Wer sind sie In der Tat geben seine Fotografien Antworten: Die Celebrities sind nicht besonders. Jeder könnte ein Star sein, denn nur die Medien erschaffen mit ihren Bildern Ikonen, Schönheit und Unsterblichkeit. Mit der Unmittelbarkeit seiner Paparazzi-Fotografien verstärkt und zerstört Ron Galella sorgsam aufgebaute Images und bietet gleichzeitig neuen Stoff für die ständige Sensationslust der Presse.
