Photographer Julian Hibbard offers an abecedary unlike any other. Drawing on his professional work shooting black & white and color photographs for everything from CD and book covers to high-end fashion, Hibbard has paired a word with one of his photographs for all twenty-six letters in the alphabet. The resulting board book contains images that evoke the shadowy, sexy and voyeuristic noir aesthetic. Hibbard's ability to infuse his frames with palpable emotion draws viewers back to his work, over and over again, as they consider his photographs in relation to words like "forbidden," "lascivious" and "quiescent." If The Noir A-Z is visible, people will not be able to resist it. This is not your child's board book!
