Walter Chin is a fashion and celebrity photographer who currently lives and works in New York. == Career == Walter Chin was born in Jamaica, and grew up there and in Canada, where he served an apprenticeship in Toronto. After graduating with a master's degree in photography,〔 Chin moved to Paris, where as a professional fashion photographer, he worked mainly for French ''Elle'', before relocating to New York in 1990.〔 His work has been published in many magazines, including ''Allure'', ''Mademoiselle'', several ''Vogue''s,〔 ''Glamour'', ''GQ'', ''Interview'', and ''Vanity Fair''. He has also photographed advertising campaigns for designers such as Chanel, Valentino,〔 Tommy Hilfiger, Missoni and Lancôme.〔 In 2013 he was selected by Neiman Marcus to photograph their annual Art of Fashion Campaign that year.〔 In 1994 Chin was listed as one of the most important people in current photography by a panel of curators, dealers, editors and industry insiders for ''American Photo'' magazine.〔 His inclusion on the list cited his modernism, use of colour and graphic form, and tight image cropping and the way in which his sitters appeared to constantly be in motion, drawing parallels with David Bailey and Martin Munkácsi.〔 In 2001, the year ''Work in Progress'', the first collection of his photographic work was published, he was still considered influential, but difficult to classify.〔 He published a second book of photographs, ''After Shoot'', in 2006. One of his best known images, of a nude Gisele Bündchen on horseback, was published in ''Vanity Fair'' in 1999, and featured in a 2008 exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery, London dedicated to ''Vanity Fair'' portraits. In 2010, the Bündchen image was still cited as one for which Chin was "especially well known." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Walter Chin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
