neously totally explicit and totally beautiful

This is a literally breathtaking collection of nude photographs by perfectionist French photo- grapher Didier Carr(c). I had given up hope of finding such images, disappointed by the coyness of nude art photography on the one hand and the wearying over-stimulation of pornography on the other. Carr(c)â€~s photographs are simultaneously totally explicit and totally beautiful.

His models have a stillness that says we taken a great deal of care and time to produce these images: take your own time to explore them. Carr(c) demonstrates the power of black and white photography to reveal the true form of flesh and muscle in light and shade. The models are rarely adorned, apart from, in many cases, one, sometimes two, glas dildos that catch the light like a jewel, focusing your attention on their inner centre â€] â€" Dermot Cox
