The Naked Truth, Paperback/Hans W. Fahrmeyer

Descriere

Hans Fahrmeyer's images are bold, colorful and unabashedly sensual. The intent is to evoke desire, and the intention is there in the eyes of each model on each and every page .. This energy is palatable and through his use of vibrant colors, uniquely body poses and positions, as well a creative editing, Hans channels the energy into images drenched in both intensity and urgency. Born in Germany, Hans worked throughout Europe prior to immigrating to the United States in 1979. Although his European influences are evident within his vision, the glamour and energy embedded in his images are erotically rooted in his passion for his home in New York's West Village.

With most of the world online, images of the naked male form are now splashed all over the web.

There are no filters in his vision, nothing to blur or hide the pulsing vitality of the men in their prime which Hans commemorates. Some photographers seem to want to diminish the intensity of carnality in the men they shoot, as if it's something to be ashamed of. Hans' goal is to capture the raw and naked truth of male sexuality in all of it's colorful, powerful glory. Hans has shot some of the worlds most successful male fitness models, and many of the images captures have become iconic depictions of the male form. I believe many of the images within The Naked Truth are destined to join them. An extensive collection of work, as you turn each page, a new theme and visual experience is unveiled. Hans beautifully pairs each page with models, pose, energy, colo
