Соня Сифф: Встреча! Мужские обнаженные тела

On the heels of Les Françaises, Sonia Sieff’s critically acclaimed book on the beauty of the female form, comes her unprecedented and sublime exploration of the male nude.

Following her much lauded and decidedly feminist take on the female nude, Sieff now trains her lens on the men of contemporary France in this second volume of her nude portraiture. Celebrating diversity and body-positivity, the thirty men in Sieff’s narrative create a body of work that is as sexy as it is intimate. Drawn from many walks of life, the men featured in the book range from recognizable fashion models to friends of the photographer who are far from the public eye.

Beautifully staged with a knowing eye, over 100 photographs describe the interior lives of men at rest and at play; Sieff captures the distinct personality of each while also depicting a unique sense of place. Shot in incomparable landscapes from windswept Brittany to the sun-kissed Mediterranean, to the quiet of Parisian bedrooms, this is a fresh take on the male nude.
