Cultura Inquieta

German photographer Florian Imgrund acquired his first film camera in the summer of 2010 and has made incredibly good use of it since. All of his double exposure work is done completely in camera without the use of photoshop, and often merges human forms with the natural landscape.

"Naked and scratched body, it was like this when humans and rest of animals lived in symbiosis."

Ryan McGinley (1977) is an US photographer based in NY.He was named Photographer of the Year in 2003 by American Photo Magazine. In 2007 McGinley was awarded the Young Photographer Infinity Award by the International Center of Photography.

Vadim Stein is talented photo art creator based in St. Petersburg, Russia. Most of his works are in black and white but all are so eye-catching and visually strong with some erotic traces surrounding solid and sober atmospheres.

“The images created by me are an invented reality and have not something in common with the validity surrounding me!”

Collected in this portfolio are images from one of the late twentieth century's master photographers. During the 1970's and 1980's, Robert Mapplethorpe created an elegant and provocative body of work - homoerotic images that managed to combine often-outrageous content with an intensely controlled presentation. Whatever the subject of his photographs the aesthetic was always classical. Mapplethorpe's work strove for balance and perfection and established him in the top rank of twentieth century artists.

The international jury of the 55th annual World Press Photo Contest has selected a picture by Samuel Aranda from Spain as the World Press Photo of the Year 2011. The picture shows a woman holding a wounded relative in her arms, inside a mosque used as a field hospital by demonstrators against the rule of President Ali Abdullah Saleh, during clashes in Sanaa, Yemen on 15 October 2011. Samuel Aranda was working in Yemen on assignment for The New York Times.

Waclaw Wantuch is a Polish fine art photographer specializing in nude photos. His photography is absolutely stunning employing black and white and macro photography to perfection.

David Hamilton (1933) delicately captures the essence of women through his pictures. We admire the natural moments portrayed in his work and the soft moods created, almost dream like…magic!

Once British newspaper The Guardian wrote "Hamilton's photographs have long been at the forefront of the "is it art or pornography?". 

Some other people consider that Hamilton is a lover of beauty. In flowers, objects, seascapes and of course, young girls. His works are remembrances of times lost when innocence and beauty were the norm; when art was beauty incarnate.

“I do not photograph nature. I photograph my visions.”

Let's catch a glimpse of the amazing universe of American artist Man Ray.

Man Ray (1890-1976), the master of experimental and fashion photography was also a painter, a filmmaker, a poet, an essayist, a philosopher, and a leader of American modernism. Known for documenting the cultural elite living in France, Man Ray spent much of his time fighting the formal constraints of the visual arts. Ray’s life and art were always provocative, engaging, and challenging.

Marc Lagrange, 1957, lives and works in Belgium. Although his pictures remind us of the great works of Helmut Newton or Peter Lindbergh, Lagrange brings sophistication to his pictures like no other. His photographs are well composed and highly sensual.

For twenty years Marc Lagrange's photos have been a tribute to beauty and eroticism. 

Very original series by the photographer and the French graphic designer Malo. These pictures depict the day of an invisible man like any other man.
