5.0 out of 5 stars An Erudite Study of Form and Light, Dec 13 2008
This review is from: The Art of Nude Phtography (Hardcover)
This is a big, beautiful book, full of imagery so breathtaking that one has to slow down to take it all in. Its dimensions are a burgeoning 13x10" and its 144 pages are packed full with exquisite duotones. The forward is written by none other than the great Jeff Dunas, a master photographer who sees amazing things in store for the young Pascal Baetens.

Perhaps not since Jeanloup Sieff was in his prime has a major photographer so astutely mastered the integration his nude subject with its immediate environment, whether it be a room in a house, nestled under a concrete bridge or even under the canopy of a great forest. Baeten's talent is glaringly obvious. The women he's used to create this body of work are not so much beautiful as they are interesting. This is not about glamour or fashion or even beauty - it is instead, an erudite study of form and light and symmetry, presented in a manner that is wholly and that of the artist. It is an electrifying achievement.

1.0 out of 5 stars Photo Album, Nov 28 2011
This review is from: The Art of Nude Phtography (Hardcover)
This book is just a photo album. There are no words in this book except for a one page introduction (written by another photographer) and a one page "Acknowledgements" written by the author at the end of the book.

Although there are some noteworthy images scattered throughout, the author is still just starting out in photography and really should have waited another ten years before launching a book. Many of the images are throw away and feel like they were added as filler.

You won't learn anything from this book. You may get some inspiration from some of the photos, but that's about it.

3.0 out of 5 stars mediocre choice, April 21 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Art of Nude Phtography (Hardcover)
Do not waste your money on this book. Too many small photos only half filling the pages. The work is good, but the book layout is lame. Get something worth it's weight.
