So Far So Goude
"For more than thirty years, through drawing, poster design, photography, cinema, video and event design, Jean-Paul Goude has made an impression, in every sense, on our imagination. From the fops of the '60s to the legendary Esquire magazine of the following decade, from the New York of Andy Warhol and mixed cultures, to Grace Jones, for whom he was Pygmalion, from the spectacular Bicentennial Parade in Paris in 1989 to the celebration of Style Beur (Arab style), from ads for Kodak and Chanel to workling with the latest supermodels - Goude has ... captured, time after time, the spirit of his age."--Book jacket.
I'll Never Write My Memoirs
Iconic music and film legend Grace Jones gives an in-depth account of her stellar career, professional and personal life, and the signature look that catapulted her into the stardom stratosphere.

So Far So Goude
"A DVD, also devised by Goude using his work in film and from various theatrical events he has staged, accompanies the book"--Dust jacket flap.
The Goude Touch
"This book assembles a collection of advertising artwork he created over a ten-year period for Galeries Lafayette - Paris's most celebrated department store." "Around 200 works, including over 100 working documents, are on show here: drawings, sketches and final images that sparkle with creative vigour. Selected and arranged by Goude himself, they present a gallery of artworks that have not only defined a brand, but have redefined advertising and brand photography as we know them." "Sexy, irreverent and often very funny, this book sizzles with Goude's frequently risque sense of humour. He is the enfant terrible behind some of the wittiest billboards in Paris, in perfect control of his medium...
