Making of The Cal^™ 2017

From idea to finished work: on the road to beauty in the faces and venues of The Cal^™ 2017

Where does true beauty reside in the art of creation? In the final product, ready to be admired or in the inspiration, the cycle of ideas, perhaps in the trials and therein the entire process that brings about the finished product.
Wholly understanding an artistic work means comprehending the long undertaking process, an entire world made up of men and machines, of experience and materials, of technique and reflection.

A professional journey made of planning, ideas, sketches, trials, drafts, and rejects that runs alongside a life build on travel, culture, decisions and emotions. Making The Cal™ reveals the phases of creation within the work of Peter Lindbergh for the 2017 Pirelli Calendar.
The protagonist locations, the eye and personality of the photographer gradually bring us closer to the launch of The Cal™, allowing us a glimpse “behind the scenes” by the side of a great artist, with an exclusive view known to few.
