History
Celebrating 20 years of sumo, the legendary photographic masterpiece reimagined in Taschen's XL collector's edition.



A legend in photographic history, Helmut Newton. SUMO is a monumental celebration of one of the twentieth century’s most provocative and influential photographers. Originally released in 1999 as a limited edition of 10,000 signed copies, the original SUMO redefined the art of bookmaking both for its extraordinary scale and for its daring content. This new XL edition by Taschen commemorates twenty years of SUMO, presenting Newton’s extraordinary vision in a more accessible yet equally striking format. Edited by June Newton, the book brings together 394 of his most iconic and subversive images, revealing the audacity, eroticism and glamour that made his work world-famous. Beautifully printed using state-of-the-art production methods, the volume showcases Newton’s mastery of the photographic nude, fashion portraiture and celebrity imagery, from models and film stars to moments of fearless intimacy. Complete with a detailed booklet on the creation of the original SUMO, this hardback edition is a collector’s treasure and a visual manifesto for Newton’s singular genius.
