THANKS

This book would not have seen the light of day without the input of Gautier Platteau, Hadewych Van den Bossche and all at Hannibal Books, M/M Paris, Tim Bisschop, Yaël Temminck and all the amazing people who have allowed me to take their photograph over the last 50+ years. And all the magazines and people who make these shoots happen, such as Vogue (US + UK), Rolling Stone, Details, SPIN, and their editors, stylists and so on. I would especially like to thank Marlene Dumas, Adam Clayton, Tom Waits, Samantha Morton, and Johan Faes for finding words to describe what I can’t; Anja Grabert for assisting me since the year zero; and all the folks in my life that I don’t thank enough for being there for me.

I LOVE YOU AND THANK YOU.

Anton
