Kate Moss in Gold, Bound Between Covers: Idea Books Publishes "Kate by Marc"

Marc Quinn's "Siren," the work that cast Kate Moss as a golden figure, is getting its own book. "Kate by Marc," from Idea Books, collects the artist's long look at the model, and Raven Smith writes the introduction. In it, Smith describes "Siren" as shared faith set into solid gold, which is a neat reading of a face so many people already knew by heart. It's a good fit for a coffee table in New York or Palm Beach, sitting beside the runway monographs and auction catalogs, where a reader can see a famous face turned into a precious metal.
