1-2-3-4 is a photography book published by Dutch photographer Anton Corbijn. The book has a foreword by the artist himself. The book documents his vast career as a photographer of some of the leading contemporary musicians and rock bands, since the late 1970s, in a selection of 350 photographs.

Artists and bands documented

The bands and musicians documented include Depeche Mode, U2, The Rolling Stones, Metallica, Nirvana, Arcade Fire, Johnny Rotten, Nick Cave, and Tom Waits.

Many of the musicians also wrote their contributions to document their work with Anton Corbijn.[1][2]

About

The book theme was also the subject of the exhibition "Anton Corbijn 1-2-3-4", that took place at the Fotomuseum Den Haag in 2015.[3]

Representing the ultimate publication on the music photography of Corbijn in 2015, this book presents a collection of 350 photographs, many never before published. The oversized book pays tribute to Corbijn's interest with rock and roll. Looking back over four decades, it features hundreds of creative, offbeat images that Corbijn was able to capture largely as a result of his close relationships with his subjects. Also included there are previously unpublished photos of the late Joe Cocker and the band Depeche Mode.[4]
