Taschen

Since we started our work as cultural archeologists in 1980, TASCHEN has become synonymous with accessible, eclectic publishing. From our affordable Basic Art series to highly collectable limited editions, we are committed to making the best books on the planet at any prize and any size.

One of the decisive moments in our history was the publication of Helmut Newton’s SUMO in 1999. Newton’s genius, the extraordinary level of resources put into this project, and its sheer scale established new horizons: SUMO became a landmark in publishing and set the tone for our meticulously curated list of Collectors Editions.

At the other end of the spectrum, honoring our company’s credo to democratize the art book, we created the TASCHEN 40 Series – beautiful reeditions of the stars of our program that are more compact than their originals, insanely low priced, and still realized with the same commitment to impeccable production.
