Icons is a collection of works by Gus Van Sant, an American film director, photographer, musician, and other artists. He is generally known for his masterpiece human film Good Will Hunting starring Matt Damon and Robin Williams, but he has also produced many edgy works, such as My Own Private Idaho starring Keanu Reeves and River Phoenix, which is about gay men, and Drugstore Cowboy, which is about drug addiction. He is a multi-artist with an excellent aesthetic sense who is active in fields other than film, but this book is a collection of works published on the occasion of an exhibition held at the Cinemathèque Française in Paris in 2016. In addition to the above-mentioned photographs, this is a meaningful book that examines Van Sant's artistic qualities, such as paintings and music, from the perspective of film. This is a long-awaited collection of works by fans, starting with images from the popular photo book 108 Portraits, sequences of each work, and even valuable interviews.
