NEW YORK, NY.- This is the newest book in Juergen Teller's original and beloved “Masters” series. Teller made his first Master in 2005 as an homage to anything and everything he believes is a master or masterful—be it punk rock icon Iggy Pop, actor Gillian Anderson, football manager Carlo Ancelotti, or even a simple vase of flowers—as well as a tongue-in-cheek recognition of himself as the master of his photographic identity. The concept was simple: to create an ongoing collection of humble books, each at the same small size, with no text and as little design as possible—an antithesis to the standard overblown coffee-table book.

Like past volumes in the series, The Master V presents an unpredictable mix of Teller’s eclectic photography: be it his unorthodox fashion work, still lifes, landscapes, portraits, or images that move between these genres. Featuring subjects including chess grand master Garry Kasparov, editor-in-chief of British Vogue Edward Enninful and fashion designer Demna Gvasalia, The Master V reveals some of the fascinating personalities most inspiring to Teller at this moment.

"I don’t like taking a sly picture on the side. I like the direct approach. I want to be as honest to myself and the subject as possible. And I’m depending on their humanness to come through." -Juergen Teller

Juergen Teller, born in Erlangen in 1964, studied at the Bayerische Staatslehranstalt für Photographie in Munich. His work has been published in influential magazines such as Vogue, System, i-D, POP and Arena Homme+, and has been the subject of solo exhibitions including those at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London, the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain in Paris and Martin-Gropius-Bau in Berlin. Teller won the prestigious Citibank Photography Prize in 2003, and from 2014 to 2019 held a professorship at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste Nürnberg. His books with Steidl include Louis XV (2005), Marc Jacobs Advertising, 1998–2009 (2009), Siegerflieger (2015), The Master IV (2019), Handbags (2019), Leben und Tod (2020), William Eggleston 414 (2020) and Auguri (2022).
