Heads

More about the book

Exploring the complexity of human identity, this collection features 184 bald models from diverse professions, including artists and athletes, all captured in identical head shots by avant-garde photographer Alex Kayser. The minimalist presentation invites viewers to reflect on physiognomy and the ways we interpret faces. Accompanying the photographs are interviews and insights from the models, touching on topics from Zen philosophy to personal anecdotes. An afterword by National Book Award winner Richard Howard adds depth to this intriguing visual study.
