Product Description

Book Description

The sculpture of Michelangelo and Rodin serve as the inspiration for Guido Argentini's photographs of the female nude, taken over a period of 17 years. They are published here for the first time. The book presents two distinct series of photographs. The first is shot in locations around the world in a way that fuses the body with the landscape, while, in the second, dancers and gymnasts are photographed in contorted positions in the studio. The bodies are covered with a veil of oil or a layer of metallic paint. Argentini studied medicine at the University of Florence for three years before turning to professional photography. He has photographed for Vogue, Marie Claire, Playboy, Max and Men's Health.

By A Customer

This review is from: Silvereye (Hardcover)

With the differing styles in the book from the Silver coating shots through to the future olympians, all are a pleasure to the eye. His use of tones is marvellous and the print quality of the book does all the images total justice

Every true lover of photography, art, women, the human form, dance, nature, aesthetics, and rapture must buy this book. It is worth every penny and more. It is, I believe, the most captivating and provocative expression of the above philosophical essentials that I have every seen. Good work, Guido.
