Kurzbeschreibung
Photo-portrait demonstrating the beauty of the black female form, set against the stunning landscape of Africa. Colour illus.
Synopsis
Uwe Ommer, a sought-after commercial photographer based in New York and Paris, has made a name for himself with his own uncommissioned works, as this book eloquently attests. For the aesthete Uwe Ommer, the bodies of black women represent the epitome of beauty. His photographs are exactly what they show, no more and no less than a homage to female beauty. And of course that homage is paid in the perfect setting, the stunning landscape of Africa. Callxthe Beyala, born in Cameroon, is one of the leading Francophile African poets. The texts in this book were written especially as a commentary on the photography of Uwe Ommer.

This is a wonderful hommage to the charm and beauty of black women. And its tribute is paid in the perfect setting - the stunning landscape of Africa. Ommer's rich color photography creates a kaleidoscopic array matching perfectly with his subjects' glistening black skin. Glamour never looked so good!
This book has already achieved a cult following so it is highly recommended that collectors get this while they can. It's a photographic treasure and touching testimony to the beauty of Africa's Black Ladies.

Masterpiece Color Nudes
17. Juni 2000
Format:Taschenbuch
This is the book that established Uwe Ommer as a master of the nude in color. The photos are fantastically lit with a beautiful natural romantic lighting that yields deeply saturated colors, yet fantastically beautiful skin tones. It is rare to see such beautiful skin tones in photos!
The images are at the same time very erotic and very tasteful. The women are just gorgeous, and the naturalness of their poses and expressions draws the viewer in to the photos.
If you appriciate nudes this is a must have. If you are bored by the typical color nudes you see in the mass media, such as Playboy, you will probably find this book refreshing.
If you appriciate the beauty of black women and long for images that show extreamly attractive exotic black women, you will enjoy this book.
If you do not appricate the beauty of black women, you may completely change your mind after looking through this book.

A must for your coffee table!
22. August 2000
Format:Taschenbuch
As a woman of African descent, I was thrilled when I saw the pocket sized version of Uwe Ommer's "Black Ladies" on a weekend visit with my girlfriend. Upon returning to NY, I immediately began searching for a full size copy for my home. The photography was breathtaking. I was flattered, because I saw reflections of myself and my sister-friends the way I see us: graceful, sexy, luscious, strong, lithe, dark and lovely. Everyone who comes to my home is immediately drawn to the book and leaves vowing to purchase a copy of their own. Don't listen to the negative criticisms. This is a purchase worth making if you love nudes and you love black beauty. Definately buy it!

AN AFRIPHILE'S PARADISE. . .
2. August 1996
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Uwe Ommer's Black Ladies is an elegant collection of African and African diaspora women(at least, there is one photo of supermodel, Roshumba Russell) which represents an aesthetic salute to black beauty that U.S. culture seems unable to produce.
Ommer published an earlier version of BL in the 1980s, and his book was featured in a 1986 edition of Zoom, the photography magazine. This new version is apparently not identical to the 1980s version, but it is equally rich. Ummer's African women are natural beauties wrapped-and-then-unwrapped quite wonderfully in an African context, reflecting the photographer's obvious passion for Africa. Those who share his vision will agree that the beauty of African women, far from being the secondary aesthetic as it is portrayed in the U.S.A., is second to none.
