i.m. ruzz



Calgary based photographer, writer, film-maker and all round interesting guy i.m. ruzz.

The writing that accompanies his photographs brings a whole new dimension that I found really engaging.

Remi Rebillard



French born, New York based, fashion and editorial photographer Remi Rebillard wrote in to share his work with us.

A warning for the faint of heart, or early morning risers like me, if you choose to watch the flash intro to his website, you may want to turn down your volume!

Marc Dubord



Heavily textured, distressed and worked over images by photographer Marc Dubord. Not everyone's cup of tea perhaps, but this photographer is consistent in his approach and his images are bizarrely creative.

Jim Linderman



Vintage photo collector and writer Jim Linderman has just published a couple of books that might make nice gifts for someone on your list this year.

The first is his illustrated essay on vernacular erotic photography from his blog of the same name:

Shy Shamed Secret Shadowed Hidden

The second is a reprinting of a marvelous old scrapbook of "racy" clippings found in the trash over 50 years ago.

Eric Kellerman - Jannis Brevet



Art Nudes' own resident curmudgeon Eric Kellerman has gone from photographing the nude to photographing the food!

Eric's latest project is the photography for a new cookbook from one of the Netherlands' top restaurants. Although this is slightly off topic from our standard fare around here, I wanted to share our old friend's latest accomplishment. It looks beautiful, great job Eric!

See a preview of the book here:

Stephanie Anne Landers


Photo by Ted Preuss

This week's model profile is professional art model (and Art Nudes reader) Stephanie Anne Landers. Stephanie's striking looks remind me of Faye Dunaway from the Bonnie and Clyde era. Sadly, last time she was on Vancouver Island, Dave Aharonian hogged her all to himself, (damn you Dave!) but hopefully she'll make it back this way again. In the meantime, she is based in New Mexico, but continues to travel around North America and shoot with other fortunate photographers.

Jan Hronsky



Edgy, dark, oddball, humourous, with a touch of glamour, erotica and fashion. It's pretty hard to hang a definition on the work of Czech photographer Jan Hronsky.

Nude Modeling Controversy in Utah



Adam, an art student and Art Nudes reader from Utah sent in this article demonstrating that power of nude modeling and art to generate controversy even today. It's often easy to forget that there's some mighty conservative points of view out there that clearly equate nudity in any form with sin and sex.

As Adam points out, the article is interesting, but the real "comedy gold" kicks in, in the 190 reader comments in response to the article.
