To describe the enchanting beauty and attraction of Erwin Olaf's photographs, one must look deeply into the history of photography and this exceptional artist's potential. Scenic, narrative subjects are captured with a cinematographic view. The masterful play of light and shadow captures the depicted bodies with a sharpness that is as precise as it is enigmatic. The photographs' skillful details create bizarre-looking visual worlds and often draw on the repertoire of fashion photography to do so. This forms the style and signature of the Dutch photographer. Marking the occasion of Olaf's first solo exhibition in Germany, this illustrated book offers an attractive overview of his multifaceted oeuvre and features some of his most recent works.
