Some years ago, an antique stereoscope was presented at one of Visionaire's weekly brainstorm sessions, inspiring a maelstrom of ideas among the magazine's editors. When the opportunity to focus an issue on Rio de Janeiro came along, they realized that stereoscopy provided the perfect format for the theme. In the nineteenth century, stereoscopes provided a primary source of imagery and news from faraway lands, and here, Visionaire 62: Rio offers a series of images by artists that interpret the city of Rio de Janeiro for 3-D viewing. Among the contributors are Brazilian supermodel Adriana Lima photographed by the artist Richard Phillips; artist Marilyn Minter photographing supermodel Izabel Goulart; filmmaker Cary Fukunaga choreographing Capoeira; artist Marco Brambilla's collages of Rio; Maurizio Cattelan and Lea T; a Tony Oursler installation photographed by Vicente de Paulo; Jason Schmidt's portraits of Vik Miniz, Adriana Verajao and Eli Sudbrack; Solve Sundsbø with Brazilian parrots; Russian performance artist Fyodor Pavlov-Andreevich on Ipanema Beach; and Brazilian photographer Gabriel Mendes.
