1000 Nudes: A History of Erotic Photography from 1839-1939

內容簡介

內容簡介 從最早的銀板攝影法，到帶有實驗意味的作品，裸體攝影是藝術，也是情色，更是時代的紀錄。攝影技術發明已超過150年，不論什麼時期、不論採用何種技法，裸體攝影一直是歷久不衰的主題。裸體攝影的歷史，代表人對於裸體的遐想執迷，也記錄了人對於藝術及情色概念的改變，更反映當代的美學運動。這本《1000 Nudes》收入1839到1939年間各時期的作品，從攝影技術剛剛萌芽，到百家爭鳴的現代主義時期，都有相關作品。作品包含了藝術家精心拍攝的藝術攝影，也有完全無關藝術、著眼買家荷包、小廣告式的明信片。書中所有的照片皆來自 Uwe Scheid的收藏，是全世界數量最豐也最重要的情色攝影收藏。Hans-Michael Koetzle是一位慕尼黑的自由作家及記者，專長主題為攝影史及攝影美學。曾出版多本攝影相關書籍。Uwe Scheid收集藝術及情色裸體攝影作品，最早可上述至攝影剛發明的時代，以及1920、30年代的作品。他是德國攝影學會、歐洲攝影史學會以及達蓋爾俱樂部、達蓋爾學會的會員。A glimpse through the keyhole of history: From the earliest nude daguerrotypes to experimental nude photography The history of nude photography is the history of people’s fascination with the topic. Indeed, the photographic depiction of the human body is the only subject that has enthralled photographers, theoreticians and consumers over such a long period – more than 150 years. No other motif is as prevalent as this one during all the phases of development comprising the history of photography, no other is present, whatever the technique, and is a subject of discussion within the context of nearly all aesthetic movements. Nor has any other pictorial topic produced such a variety of specialities as the nude: from the ethnological interpretation of the body to the glamour shot, from nudist photography to the pin-up of today. No other photographic field of application has inspired as much desire as it has awakened official wrath.1000 Nudes offers a cross-section of the history of nude photography, ranging from the earliest nude daguerrotypes and ethnographic nude photographs to experimental nude photography. The period of time spanned by this work is from 1839 to roughly 1939, from the medium’s infancy to the end of the classic modernist period. Content-wise, the book pays tribute to the full range of pictorial approaches, from the manually elaborated artistic nudes of the turn of the century, enveloped in layers of theory, to the “obscene” postcard motifs which had not the slightest artistic pretension and were intended to exert a maximum effect on the buyer’s wallet.All the pictures shown are taken from the late Uwe Scheid’s collection, one of the world’s largest and most important collections of erotic photography.
