As I can recall the Pirelli calendars was much more "arty" a couple of years ago, these kind of calendars with overly photoshopped women just seem tacky to me.
This is a serious Pirelli calendar, or is it something a fan just made? Seems odd that a company like Pirelli would make a calendar that is essentially porn?
It doesnt look serious to me, it looks like a usual car part calendar that the mechanics have on the garage wall. Just look at the earlier ones, thats photo art, this is just crap. http://mudar.free.fr/pirelli/
Not sure who generated the garbage calendar on that link, but it certainly is NOT official 2004 Pirelli calendar. Pirelli Calendar 2004 On the 12th November 2003, in the historical Royal Courts of Justice building in London, the 2004 Pirelli Calendar was launched to the press, to collectors and to enthusiasts the world over. Once again, this event was one of the world events most awaited by lovers of photography, fashion and beauty, an exclusive event that traditionally blends art with seduction. This issue was special: it marked the 40th anniversary of the Pirelli Calendar, a "must have" symbol, a true icon of beauty. This year the Pirelli Calendar is embellished by a line-up of some of the world's most highly touted models, some of whom participated in previous editions: Maria Carla Boscono, Karolina Kurkova, Natalia Vodianova and Jessica Miller in 2003, Frankie Rayder in 2001 and Alek Wek in 1999 and 2000. Liberty Ross, Amanda Moore, Polyanna McIntosh, and promising "rookies" Dewi Driegen, Esther De Jong, Ai Tominaga and Adina join them. This Pirelli Calendar has been highly innovative in its technique and artistic expression, therefore, but in the selection of protagonists fully confirms the canons of 40 years of tradition. The Theme Innovation and technology at the service of artistic creativity of Nick Knight, world-famous British photographer who made visual sculptures, born of a symbiotic relationship between traditional photography and digital art. His taste, combined with an approach typical of "conceptual art", has produced an unprecedented Pirelli Calendar that is vibrant in its color, abstract in its design and magical to the eye. Knight posed his models in an ambience that is dreamlike and fantastic but unequivocally feminine in which the perspective of portrayed female sexuality - as traditionally perceived by men - is reversed. "I feared that the calendar might propose a vision of woman from the exclusively masculine viewpoint", Knight explains. "So for this project I decided to ask the women what they would like to see represented in a Pirelli Calendar, leaving them to choose the theme". The Pictures "This Calendar portrays an imaginary world, so I wanted the images to evoke fantasies, simply hinting at or suggesting forms and situations", Knight explains. "When we dream, we use a wide perspective, and the image may be clearly defined in some details while it is out of focus in others. Of course, the technique must also lend coherence to the images from a visual standpoint". Knight's post-production technique, based on the "merging" and chromatic processing of the photographs, proves to be quite well suited to this particular project: each shot is perfectly defined in some points, less in others. "In each photograph there are situations or symbols to decipher", Knight concludes. "I want people to be puzzled by this Pirelli Calendar and have fun looking at it and looking at it again, discovering a meaning of their own each day". Image Unavailable, Please Login
