“我们觉得这些鸡一直在聚光灯下等待着它们展现自我的时刻。”

Moreno Monti和Matteo Tranchellini已经在米兰一起工作超过二十年。他们共同的努力最终创造了这样一个奇特的系列。这是一个关于鸡的摄影项目。这本书里的鸡是主角，它们被拍成顶级模特。该系列包括100多种不同类型的鸡的200多张图片，包括高质量印刷的茶几书和各种让人难以抗拒购买诱惑的周边商品。

“We felt like the chickens had been waiting for their moment in the spotlight.”

Moreno Monti & Matteo Tranchellini have worked together in Milano for the past twenty plus years. It is exactly this symbiosis of the two visions that creates the final result. CHICken is a photographic project about chickens. The chickens in this book are the protagonists and are photographed as top models. The collection consists of more than 200 pictures of 100 diverse types of chickens and includes a high quality printed coffee table book and a large variety of irresistible accessories.

CHICken系列拍摄于意大利米兰航空展览馆。许多饲养者担心整个拍摄过程是否符合鸡的养殖标准。然而他们不知道的是这些鸟类动物非常出色地完成了它们的“作业”：它们天生会摆造型。摄影师想要捕捉它们的自然状态下的优雅的仪容。

The CHICken series was photographed in Italy at the Milano aviary exhibition. Many of the breeders were worried that the birds were not posed according to the breed standard. Instead, what they didn’t understand was just how well the birds had done their homework, they were natural born posers. The photographers wanted to capture them in their natural state of being with all their elegance.
