Jean Pigozzi: The 213 Most Important Men in My Life
Jean Pigozzi celebrates his many mentors and friends from Mick Jagger to Ettore Sottsass
Collector and photographer Jean Pigozzi is renowned for his eclectic art collection and for his social circle, which includes film icons, directors, authors and artists, rock stars, fashion designers and titans of industry. Following on from his previous bestselling book ME+CO: The Selfies 1972–2016, his latest collection introduces us to the men and mentors who influenced his life. From his father Enrico Pigozzi—who passed away when Jean was just a teenager—to Italian entrepreneur Gianni Agnelli, from rock stars Mick Jagger and Bono to architect Ettore Sottsass, Pigozzi travelled the world and met many of these men during gallery openings, parties, or dinner conversations. Through The 213 Most Important Men in My Life, we are reminded of the power of single individuals of the 20th and 21st centuries who became true icons in their fields. Jean Pigozzi was born in Paris in 1952. He attended Harvard University, where he studied film and photography. After graduating, he worked in film and television. He began keeping a visual journal of his friends, family, travels, and surroundings in the 1960s. His first solo exhibition of photography was at Muse?e d’Art Moderne, Paris, and his photographs have since been exhibited worldwide.
