´The face became a hypocritical mask, which enunciates what you want, which can laugh when you´re sad, which seems to be interested while you´re dieing of boredom, which petrifies even though you´re boiling with passion.` (translated freely by me)
Jean Loup Sieff war ein französischer Fotograf, der durch Porträts von Stars wie zB. Alfred Hitchcock, Jane Fonda und Catherine Deneuve, aber auch durch seine atemberaubenden Fotos unbekannter Menschen bekannt wurde.
Ich persönlich finde vor allem seine Aktaufnahmen und Porträts absolut einnehmend und beeindruckend. Ich mag es, wie er Licht und Schatten einsetzt, um die Formen und Rundungen des nackten Körpers damit zu schmücken. Seine Bilder wirken dabei so ungestellt, ausdrucksstark, schmeichelnd, glamourös und obwohl es nackte Körper sind, keineswegs anzüglich.

I personally adore is nude photography and his black and white portraits. The way he uses light and shadows to robe the shapes and curves of the naked bodies is simply beautiful.
Thereby his photographs appear highly expressive, flattering, glamorous and although they show naked bodies, they do not seem insinuating at all.
