1953. november 25-én a magyar labdarúgó-válogatott „az évszázad mérkőzésén” 6:3-ra legyőzte az angolokat. David Bailey könyve ezzel a meccsel kezdődik: a Vasfüggönyön túlról jött „mágikus magyarok” nemcsak játékukkal nyűgözték le a Wembley stadion közönségét, hanem egészen modern szerelésükkel is. Mintha a múlt és a jövő találkozott volna. A Magyarországon élő angol szerző több mint tizenöt évvel ezelőtt határozta el, hogy megírja az Aranycsapat történetét: meg akarta érteni, hogy abban az országban, ahol futballrajongóként (legalábbis akkor még) düledező stadionokban nézte a gyenge magyar bajnoki meccseket, az 1950-es években hogyan bukkanhattak fel egyszer csak káprázatosan tehetséges focisták tucatjai. Mi a titka az Aranycsapatnak? Bailey a legjobb angol történetíró hagyományok szellemében meséli el a politika és a futball párhuzamos, de sok tekintetben összekapcsolódó történetét. Leírja a Rákosi-diktatúra minden szörnyűségét és azt is, hogy az Aranycsapat tagjai, akik közül jó páran gyűlölték a kommunista rendszert, hogyan tudtak (vagy kényszerültek) együtt élni vele. Ebben az új, átdolgozott és bővített változatban a szerző a magyar futball Aranycsapat utáni történetét is összefoglalja – természetesen a maga angol nézőpontjából –, egészen Szoboszlai Dominik liverpooli karrierjéig, aki lassan átveszi „a leghíresebb magyar” címét Puskás Ferenctől. „Ez nem egyszerűen egy kiváló csapat volt, amely részben a szerencsének s persze leginkább a jó játékosainak köszönhetően nagy sikereket ér el. Voltak itt nagy barátságok és árulások, volt dicsőség és elnyomás, gazdagság és kapzsiság, és volt halál. Már a játékosok becenevei is regénybe illenek: Bolond, Púpos, Öreg, Öcsi, Fekete Párduc, Cucu, Kocka. S a díszletet mindehhez egy olyan kíméletlen sztálinista rezsim szolgáltatta, amely nagyobb százalékban börtönözte be saját lakosait, mint a szovjet blokk bármely másik országa.” A szöveget sporttörténeti szempontból Szegedi Péter és Dénes Tamás ellenőrizte.

In the 1980s, fashion wanted to make a statement and found in legendary British fashion photographer David Bailey its perfect chronicler. After Bailey shaped the style of the Swinging Sixties, fashion in the eighties posed a new challenge: brighter colours, higher glamour, statuesque models, extreme makeup, spandex, lycra, jumpsuits, power dressing, big hair, and as Grace Coddington puts it in her introduction, “jackets with padded shoulders over the shortest mini-skirts and dangerously high-heeled shoes.” Eighties compiles Bailey’s era-defining fashion photography from the pages of Vogue Italia, Vogue Paris, Tatler, and countless others. Featuring couture, catwalk, and ready-to-wear collections by the epoch’s seminal designers, including Azzedine Alaia, Comme des Garçons, Guy Laroche, Missoni, Stephen Jones, Valentino, and Yves Saint Laurent, the book stands as a testament to a decade that dismantled hierarchies of taste to reintroduce fun and sex into fashion, reminding us that we need not think of either as dirty words. Here, the jewellery sparkles, the silks shimmer, and the suits sprawl. The most beautiful are captured at their most playful, invincible, and provocatively sexy. We see fabled 1980s icons and beauties: Catherine Bailey, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Catherine Deneuve, Princess Diana, Jerry Hall, Marie Helvin, Grace Jones, Kelly LeBrock, Christy Turlington, Tina Turner, and many more. The cultural resonances of the 1980s present on our screens, runways, and concert stages make today ideal for recontextualising its enduring legacy of maximalism and excess. Eighties offers a unique opportunity to do so with David Bailey as a guide, and interpreter, who’s never afraid to wink at his audience. As Bailey says in his foreword, “The eighties turned out to be magic.” Here, that magic comes alive.

It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the extraordinary. David Bailey The portraits in this book have been personally selected by Bailey from the wide range of subjects and groups that he has captured so brilliantly over the last five decades: actors, writers, musicians, politicians, film-makers, models, artists and people encountered on his travels to Australia, India, Sudan and Papua New Guinea; many of them famous, some unknown, all of them engaging and memorable. Baileys Stardust will be accompanied by a major exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery, London, in spring 2014, which will then tour to venues on four continents. The book, like the exhibition, is structured thematically, with iconic images presented alongside many lesser-known and previously unseen portraits, and includes an illuminating introduction by the art historian Tim Marlow. Initially engaged as an assistant to John French in 1959, Bailey was contracted by British Vogue the following year. He has since worked for the French, Italian and American editions of the magazine, created album sleeves for major recording artists such as the Rolling Stones, directed television commercials, and made documentary films, including in-depth studies of Cecil Beaton, Luchino Visconti and Andy Warhol. Baileys photographs helped to define the cultural and social scene of the 1960s, and immortalising figures from the worlds of fashion, music, film and art soon elevated Bailey to the status of celebrity himself. Antonionis cult film Blow-up (1966), about a London fashion photographer, was inspired by Bailey, whose life was also dramatised recently in the BBC film Well Take Manhattan (2012), which tells the story of his 1962 New York fashion shoot with the model Jean Shrimpton.
