In the Blink of An Eye: Ryan McGinley and Kate Moss for W

Between causing a commotion with her Topshop line, continuing her bad-girl antics with musician and fuckup Pete Doherty and finding other new and interesting ways of mucking up scandal, sometimes I almost forget that Kate Moss is a great model above all else. Which is why you need to check out the editorial she shot with the insanely talented Ryan McGinley for W in their June 2007 issue (the one with Naomi Campbell on the cover.) Those down with the art scene in New York have known of McGinley for awhile now, what with being a wunderkind and all -- youngest artist to ever have a solo show at Whitney, that sort of thing. Whether he's photographing couples making out, young boys skateboarding, or friends camping, there's a sort of abstract intimacy he brings to his lens that makes his images oddly joyful and tender. He does no different with Kate, and the result is ethereal and just so beautiful.
