Birds (Unopened) is a photo book by Paolo Roversi, an Italian artist currently based in Paris. Born in Ravenna, Italy in 1947, Roversi became interested in photography as a teenager and set up a darkroom in his basement to study printmaking. In the early 1970s, he opened a small studio in his hometown, where he was invited by Swiss photographer Peter Knapp, who was the art director of Elle magazine at the time, to travel to Paris and take fashion photos for the magazine. Since then, he has stayed in Paris and is well known for his work with prestigious collection brands and fashion magazines such as Vogue and Elle. This book is a collection of works published on the occasion of an exhibition held at Dallas Contemporary in Texas, USA in the spring of 2020, and introduces Roversi's collaboration with Comme des Garçons (Rei Kawakubo). Unopened (but shrink wrap is torn).
