Visionaire
1999
27 MOVEMENT, one of our most conceptual issues, is based on the abstract notion of motion. The images are printed on vellum, a near-transparent material that enhances the stop-motion effects of the photographs. We used lenticular photography to create the 3D front- and back-cover images of Kate Moss swinging to and fro. Those images were created by an all-English team: Nick Knight took the picture, Peter Saville art directed, and Alexander McQueen and Katy England did the styling, which made perfect sense when we launched the issue at Harvey Nichols in London. Other contributors included designers Martin Margiela and Hussein Chalayan, artists Ross Bleckner and Tony Oursler, illustrator François Berthoud, and photographers Steven Meisel and Steven Klein.
