Roberto Bolle: Dance and Fashion -- Roberto Bolle, Hardcover

The definitive illustrated volume on Roberto Bolle, a dancer who, for his perfect physique and great artistry, has been called a "dancing Greek sculpture."

This lavish text presents the magnificent Roberto Bolle, as seen through the lens of major international photographers including Bruce Weber, Annie Leibovitz, Fabrizio Ferri, Douglas Kirkland, Gian Paolo Barbieri, Giovanni Gastel, and Mario Testino, among others. Bolle's own words, alongside those of friends and fans from the worlds of performance, culture, and fashion, tell the story of his long and storied career on the international stage.

Bolle's magnetic charisma helped bring dance to a wider audience, drawing large and enthusiastic crowds to the ballet. A much-courted media star, Bolle appeared in numerous fashion and style magazines, as well as advertising campaigns that brought his perfectly trained body to the cause of couture. Through the art of dance, Bolle has truly become one of Italy's cultural ambassadors to the world.
