Blurb

An exclusive look at Tilda Swinton's iconic film roles, with a special focus on the artistic collaborations integral to her career.

Tilda Swinton's first book of film works takes readers behind the scenes on some of her most iconic roles. Using as a starting point the artistic collaborations that helped shape her singular presence, from projects with Derek Jarman to Luca Guadagnino, the book will explore Swinton's autobiography. Swinton pushes the boundaries of the sometimes-limited role of the actor, inviting visitors on a sensory journey that celebrates co-creation, the synergy between director and actor, and the influence of various art forms. This project pays tribute to the spirit of "renewal through connectivity" that has defined Swinton's remarkable career.

Film stills and previously unpublished photography from a selection of short and feature-length films in which Swinton plays a role include Suspiria, Only Lovers Left Alive, I Am Love, Orlando, Problemista, Ten Thousand Years of Longing, A Bigger Splash, Julia, Burn After Reading, Asteroid City, Edward II, Adaptation, We Need to Talk About Kevin, Snowpiercer, and many more. The book will dedicate a section to the work of Derek Jarman, who was pivotal to Swinton's artistic development, and Joanna Hogg, a childhood friend with whom she has recently collaborated. The selection will also include texts and stills exploring her collaborations with Derek Jarman, Pedro Almodóvar and Apichatpong Weerasethakul, focusing on the dynamic between actor and director in collective artistic processes.
