Anton Corbijn is a Dutch photographer, filmmaker, and video artist.

Born Anton Johannes Gerrit Corbijn van Willenswaard on May 20, 1955 in Strijen, Netherlands, Corbijn began shooting local bands at the age 17, before moving to London to work for NME magazine as a staff photographer. He has directed over 80 music videos for a number of musicians, including Nirvana, U2, Depeche Mode, and Joy Division.

In Instanton präsentiert der international führende Fotograf und Filmemacher Anton Corbijn eine Reihe von Bildern, von denen die meisten noch nie zuvor veröffentlicht worden sind. Corbijn wurde durch seine Porträts berühmter Persönlichkeiten wie Tom Waits, The Rolling Stones, Marlene Dumas, Gerhard Richter, Clint Eastwood, Kate Moss und einer Vielzahl anderer einflussreicher Musiker, Künstler, Filmemacher, Models und Designer bekannt. Im Laufe der Jahre hat Corbijn aber auch eine Fülle von faszinierenden Bildern mit seinem Telefon aufgenommen. Instanton versammelt eine große Auswahl dieser Schnappschüsse aus seinem Privatleben sowie Aufnahmen, die er auf Reisen gemacht hat, um „das Profane und das Tiefgründige“ festzuhalten. Die Publikation enthält fünf verschiedene, manuell aufgetragene Titelbilder, die nach dem Zufallsprinzip über die Publikationsreihe verteilt sind.
