Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn

English

Illustrated by: Reuel Golden

In November 2020, Depeche Mode were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and Dave Gahan, accepting the honour, said: Id like to thank Anton Corbijn who thank God came in at the right time and actually made us look cool. Also in the fall of 2020, TASCHEN released the limited edition Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn (8118) signed by Depeche Mode and Anton Corbijn, and it became one of the fastest selling collectors editions in the publishing companys history. This pocket-sized and wallet-friendly edition is a testament to Corbijns unique vision, and indeed cool as Gahan acknowledged so movingly in his speech; an illustrated history of how Corbijn, who became in 1986 the bands de facto creative director, and helped cement Depeche Modes reputation as the biggest cult band in the world.Featuring over 150 photographs from Corbijns extensive archives, including formal and informal portraits from places such as Madrid, Hamburg, the California desert, Prague and Marrakech; a multitude of off-the-cuff, candid images; and stunning live shots from all their tours since 1988 right up to 2023. Created with the full collaboration of the band, who share some insights on working with Corbijn, Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn trumpets how one mans original aesthetic, that has encompassed all of their photography, most of their music videos, album graphics and set designs, helped shape the bands enduring popularity. Reflecting on his role in Depeche Mode, Corbijn recalls in the books introduction: A lot of it came down to me, and I wanted it to be right for them. I wanted to think for them. To be great for them. This book is a tribute to the depth and breadth of that greatness, a celebration of one of the most creative and enduring collaborations in rock history.
