Summary: Simply Beautiful
Comment: I was so lucky to finally find this book, as all the bookstores I asked had already sold out. Andreas H. Bitesnich must really be the undisputed master of black & white nude photography. This large-format book contains his work through the last decade, and is from start to finish an ode to the human form. Bitesnich avoids all use of props and styling to create mood. Instead he creates human sculputres, using the form itself, and his wonderful sense of lightning. His nudes are highly charged and sexual without borrowing any clichés. Even the most abstract retain this quality through the gorgeous textrues of skin, simultaneously soft and vulnerable, hard and unobtainable. It is precisely with these contrasts that Bitesnich comes into his own. Simply Beautiful!

Summary: Bitesnich knows a good idea when he sees it
Comment: Herb Ritts, in Men/Women, 1989, enthralled us with images of women against a stark white wall -- women whose skin Ritts rendered profoundly dark regardless of race. Dennis Manarchy did some amazing pictures in 1990-1991 of a wonderfully muscular black man dressed only in a coat of baby oil, also against a pure white backdrop. Albert Watson, ca. 1989, gave us murky, sexy images of white women rendered so dark as to be indistinguishable from the gloom that enveloped them. Andreas Bitesnich synthesizes these and other similar influences in "Nudes", a series of pictures from about 1993-1998 in a luxuriously produced volume with card stock pages from Edition Stemmle. The images are mostly dark, very simple nudes, male and female, all rendered with very dark skin oiled in varying amounts from just a drop to slathered. The poses are from graceful modern dance with plenty of bulging muscle and extension, and all aloof personae. They are spectacularly beautiful and about as inviting as a pit bull. The pleasure here, for the most part, is a nearly abstract indulgence in sculptured nude humans. Unfortunately, Bitesnich doesn't advance upon the work launched by his predecessors, although he imitates them very well indeed.
