SUSAN SARANDON, 1978
PHOTOGRAPHER: CHRIS VON WANGENHEIM
Outtake from Crawdaddy
This image of a young and tattooed Susan Sarandon was shot for the May 1978 issue of the magazine Crawdaddy cover whose tagline was “Wild Dreams Wicked Desired”. It is quite emblematic of Chris von Wangenheim’s style: powerfully convincing world of fragile but dangerously attractive glamour.
Chris von Wangenheim fashioned images that were highly seductive and captivating, and took control by borrowing from the femme fatale codes of Film Noir and punk movement, with ultra-feminine, assertive and chic women. He pointed out the contradiction of the rich society’s elegance and decadence.
