PARCO is currently selling a special edition art book, "TALES FROM THE BLACK FOREST," featuring seasonal advertising visuals from Fall/Winter 2016 to Spring/Summer 2017.


This book is a fascinating look into the world created by the collaboration between M/M Paris, a creative unit active in a wide range of fields including fashion, art, music, and design, who have been working on PARCO's advertising since Fall/Winter 2014, and Juergen Teller, a world-renowned photographer whose unique style transcends the boundaries between fashion and art. The special 12-inch record sleeve-style packaging features eye-catching monochrome illustrations by MM Paris, and includes large posters (double-sided, two sheets, W600mm x H900mm) featuring four visuals photographed by Juergen Teller, and a photo book (W300mm x H300mm, 24 saddle-stitched pages) featuring re-edited, previously unpublished photos from Parco advertisements. It also includes a 7-inch analog record containing the audio (4 songs) from the commercial movie.
