About this Book

'Uneasy'' is a book of Chris Buck's portraits of the famous, with 338 color and black-and-white photographs, from 1986 to 2016. For three decades Buck has been carving out a unique space in the world of celebrity portraiture, capturing its ineffability--its danger, its oddness, its warped sense of reality. Uneasy constructs a road map of contemporary culture, featuring a wide range of subjects, including many of the most recognizable names today: President Barack Obama, George Clooney, Joaquin Phoenix, Lena Dunham, Snoop Dogg, Willie Nelson, Louis C.K., Philip Seymour Hoffman, William Shatner, Aziz Ansari, Kristen Stewart, Jay Z, Cindy Sherman, Jimmy Fallon and Donald Trump. Many of his portraits have become the iconic images of these subjects, including Steve Martin, Andy Samburg, Chris Farley, Billy Bob Thornton, and Michele Bachmann.
