De seu estúdio em Paris, Karl Lagerfeld criou “Mythology”, o Calendário de 2011 da Pirelli que reflete uma das suas maiores paixões, a mitologia grega e romana, os contos sobre as origens da humanidade contada através das aventuras de deuses e deusas, heróis e heroínas. Em uma viagem através do tempo transportado pela linguagem universal da fotografia, “Mythology” leva-nos às raízes da civilização clássica e leva o Calendário Pirelli de volta ao Velho Mundo, onde quase 140 anos atrás, uma empresa que nasceu era para se tornar um organização multinacional com operações em mais de 160 nações ao redor do mundo.
As 36 fotos que compõem o calendário de 2011 mostram 24 indivíduos diferentes, incluindo os deuses, heróis e mitos. Com seu olhar aguçado, Lagerfeld esculpiu estas fotos, tanto em termos do seu rigor estético e para as referências recorrentes na arte da escultura clássica e seus princípios. Todas as fotos são em preto e branco, que empresta caráter de imagens, exalta a beleza das figuras representadas em acentuado contraste cromático, e lhes dá uma certa tridimensionalidade através do uso cuidadoso da luz.

From his Paris studio, Karl Lagerfeld created “Mythology”, the Pirelli’s 2011 Calendar that reflects one of his deepest passions, that of Greek and Roman mythology, tales of the origins of humanity told through the adventures of gods and goddesses, heroes and heroines. On a voyage back through time transported by the universal language of photography, “Mythology” takes us to the roots of classical civilisation and takes the Pirelli Calendar back to the Old World, where nearly 140 years ago a company was born that was to become a multinational organisation with operations in over 160 nations around the world.
The 36 photos that make up the 2011 Calendar show 24 different subjects, including gods, heroes and myths. With his keen eye, Lagerfeld has ‘sculpted’ these photos both in terms of their aesthetic rigour and for the recurring references to the art of sculpture and its classical tenets. All of the photos are in black and white, which lends character to the images, exalts the beauty of the figures represented in sharp chromatic contrast, and gives them a certain three-dimensionality through the careful use of light.
