The AWA postcard set transforms twenty-five “best-of” photos from the original book (and one all-new bonus image!) into adorable, padbound postcards, easy to send or display. Fueled by a vision for distinctive design, stunning photography, and unexpected narrative, Accidentally Wes Anderson is a passport to inspiration and adventure. Perfect for modern travelers and fans of Wes Anderson’s distinctive aesthetic, this is an invitation to look at your world through a different lens. Who's included? Varying in layout, the images share vibrant color composition, both joyful and surreal…True to its inspiration, the collection is breathtaking, witty, and happily ambitious, a perfect diversion for film fans and globe trotters alike."

Wes Anderson Produktionen bestechen mit besonderem Witz, sensationellen Besetzungen und einer eigenwilligen Ästhetik. Jede bespielt eine eigene Farbpalette; Kuriositäten im Retrochic und ein penibler Bildaufbau runden den Look ab. Und was natürlich auch nie, nie, nie fehlen darf, sind besondere architektonische Gegebenheiten. Diese auf einen Nenner zu bringen, ist allerdings gar nicht so leicht. Oft haftet den Bauwerken etwas Absurdes an, fast immer haben sie klare Linien und intensive Farben. Wer mehrere Anderson-Filme intus hat, weiß es einfach ... If you know, you know. The exhibition will display over two hundred photographs of sights from around the world that depict Anderson’s pastel-hued style across seven movie-themed rooms. The exhibit will open on December 13 on Old Brompton Rd, South Kensington, having made its debut in Tokyo, Japan before exhibiting in Seoul, South Korea. Yes! Each postcard can be easily, and cleanly, be removed from the lay-flat, hardbound binding of the book so you can mail them to your mom, frame ’em in your room, or fling ’em at your friends. (Protective eye-wear should be worn if you choose to engage in option 3) When will this set be available in my country? What a talent, what a career, what a life, and what a treat to relive it all with this most down-to-earth of demigods. There are 26 high-quality postcards in the collection, so you can send a smile via snail mail to someone you love (or perhaps someone you don’t) every two weeks for an entire year. Can I remove the postcards from the book?

I would advise the reader however, to take all the descriptions with a grain of salt. I cannot confirm nor deny the accuracy of the texts describing the let’s say lighthouses in Africa or viewfinders in South America, but I did read them uncritically, until I got to the Slovenian railways text, which I knew presented misinformation. Well, someone’s got an eagle eye! We’re not too surprised as we know that this Community is very detail-oriented 🙂

Spears’ vulnerability shines through as she describes her painful journey from vulnerable girl to empowered woman. The production of this book involved close to 200 individuals – more than 180+ Photographers from more than 50 different countries. That does not include the writers, editors, designers, the publishing team… it is the result of a global team effort. What about Wes? At the end, I should not let the sinister aspects of orientalism go unmentioned. Although the selected photos were disproportionately taken in what we “consider the West”, some of the ones taken in other parts of the world, were taken by, what I presume to be locals, so the uniquely Wes Anderson lens, wasn’t superimposed on the portrayed objects in a way, that takes them out of their contexts … I hope at least, since I am not a representative of such a culture, that has historically been exploited and misrepresented.
