Jan Friese : photographs the 'Space Opera' series on Star Wars sets, RENAULT KADIAR campaign for Publicis Paris, Ferrari 488 GTB for GQ Germany

Jan FRIESE and RECOM teamed up to produce the series titled "Space Opera". The shoot took place in Tunisia on the original Star Wars sets, which are still pretty much intact. "Unfortunately, Luke was not at home, but we did succeed in convincing a skeptical Stormtrooper to join the Light Side of the Force," Jan tells GoSee, tongue in cheek.

RENAULT and advertising agency Publicis Paris commissioned Jan FRIESE to realize the RENAULT KADIAR campaign. Photos were shot in French Marseille.

Armed only with his iPhone, Jan FRIESE photographed powerful photos of the International Convention Center ICC in Berlin. And "Death Star Blueprint" actually could have been the draft for the real Death Star.

For the new GQ issue, Jan FRIESE traveled to Maranello where he photographed the Ferrari 488 GTB and staged the unbridled power of this elegant horse in the dust.
