Madonna in Art (2004)
In 1977,Madonna Louise Ciccone moved from Michigan to New York City,
re-christening herself simply ‘Madonna’. Six years of hard work in the clubs
of Manhattan with a succession of bands propelled her to the forefront of the
New York scene. In 1983, her self-titled debut album was released, and the hit
singles ‘Holiday’ and ‘Borderline’ soon followed. Then came seventeen
consecutive top ten hits, a further ten albums, and roles in nineteen feature
films, from her debut in the 80’s classic Desperately Seeking Susan to the
steamy thriller Body of Evidence. Multitalented, controversial in her own
proud sexuality and a dedicated campaigner for sexual tolerance, Madonna is
one of the great Millennial Icons, a one-woman pop phenomenon who has pushed
back and blurred the boundaries of the music, film and fashion worlds.
‘Madonna in Art’ is a celebration of the Pop Goddess
at every stage of her career. A testament to her unique global impact,
it features work by over a hundred artists, including Andrew Logan,
Bruni, Sebastian Kruger, Al Hirschfeld, Donna Lief and Peter Howson.
These images range across every role Madonna has played on the world
stage, from erotic dancer to the dignified figure of Eva Peron in Evita.
