We invited him up for pasta.” And now the guy is sending his art to the moon! ALL TOMORROW’S PARTIES. At a VIP opening for the Whitney Biennial in New York, Vanity Fair’s Nate Freeman caught up with collector Mera Rubell, who said that she used to throw Biennial afterparties with her husband, Don, back in the days when the museum was on the Upper East Side. “One time, we got a buzz from someone who wanted to come to the party—but they were a full day late,” Mera said. Billionaire collector Joseph Lau is reportedly selling eight porcelains from the Ming and Qing dynasties through Sotheby’s and a trove of rare wine through Christie’s, which could net him some $20 million in total. And Joasia Krysa, professor of exhibition research and head of art and design at Liverpool John Moores University in the U. K., will curate the 2023 Helsinki Biennial, per Artforum. Shooting for leading magazines and brands, and serving as the personal portraitist for Princess Diana, Demarchelier was one of the most visible fashion photographers of his era. “The combination of ease and elegance set his work apart,” Vanessa Friedman writes in the New York Times, where she is fashion director and chief fashion critic.

Demarchelier denied all of the allegations at the time, but in response to the accusations, Condé Nast announced, “We have informed Patrick we will not be working with him for the foreseeable future.” The photographer, who was born in 1943, grew up in Le Havre, France. He began his career in Paris with no formal training before becoming an assistant to Vogue photographer Hans Feurer which first put him in contact with the fashion magazine he would eventually become synonymous with. He is survived by his wife Mia, his three sons Gustaf, Arthur, Victor and three grandchildren.” Demarchelier's work was a staple of both Vogue and Harper's Bazaar for three decades, and he became the first non-British person to ever take an official royal photograph with his portrait of Princess Diana.

French photographer Patrick Demarchelier, whose photos have appeared on the covers of Vogue and Harper's Bazaar, has died. He was 78.

He was also one of my favorite photographers. "It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Patrick Demarchelier," a message on his Instagram account read. Very sad to hear of his passing. Conde Nast, which owns Vogue, later released a statement noting the company would "not be working with him for the foreseeable future."

Patrick Demarchelier has died · Beauty's big bet on entertainment · Makeup artist and beauty founder AJ Crimson has passed away · 'Elle' profiles Emma Grede

We thank you all for your kind words, tweets, and posts, as AJ was an inspiration to us as much as he was a bright light to the rest of the world. As Condé Nast editorial staffers unionize and publishers restrict employees from sponsored partnerships to supplement their income, retaining talent has become a struggle in the media realm, reports Diana Pearl for Business of Fashion. "While a position at a magazine still often carries an air of prestige, cachet doesn't pay the bills," writes Pearl. "As staffers continue to unionize, standard agreements around taking on sponsored deals may be written into contracts. We as a family are heartbroken and devastated by his passing, but thankful for the lessons that he laid on each of us with his truth, directness, and leadership. I see and hear the criticism every day, but do I sleep well? AJ Crimson, makeup artist and founder of an eponymous color cosmetics company, passed away on Thursday. In a public statement, Crimson's family remembered the creative: "AJ Crimson was a makeup industry leader that set a standard of beauty that was elevated, beautiful and accessible to people of all color. But he was not without controversy: In 2018, Demarchelier was the subject of a Boston Globe article in which numerous models accused him of sexual harassment and unwanted advances.

The Frenchman was famous for his portraits of supermodels and his close relationship to Princess Diana, and his images are a part of the fashion canon.

“Patrick takes simple photographs perfectly, which is of course immensely difficult,” Anna Wintour, the editor of Vogue, wrote in a 2015 essay for a Christie’s auction of his work. Indeed, he became so synonymous with Vogue that his name made a cameo in the 2006 film “The Devil Wears Prada,” from which “Get me Patrick” was a much-quoted line. “He makes attractive women look beautiful and beautiful women seem real.”

Princess Diana made Demarchelier her official photographer but in the last chapter of his life, he was accused of sexual misconduct.

But a cloud settled over the last chapter of his life when he was accused of sexual misconduct by a number of models and a former photo assistant in the Boston Globe. Demarchelier denied the allegations, which were corroborated by the paper but not attributed on the record. He is survived by his wife, Mia; three sons, Gustaf, Arthur, and Victor, who also became a fashion photographer; and three grandchildren. He was named an officer in the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres from the French government in 2007, and saw exhibitions and gallery shows of his work staged over the years. But in fact, Demarchelier worked widely, and when Liz Tilberis reinvented Harper’s Bazaar in 1992, she and Fabien Baron turned to Demarchelier to shoot the first cover, a stripped-down statement of new intent: Linda Evangelista against a pure-white backdrop in a beaded black bodysuit, one hand swanishly covering her face. “They all have a certain glamour to them, but they’re not just one kind of photograph.” “He can happily fit into any situation,” Coddington added. A cause of death was not given.
