A publisher of unique and exquisite special interest books teNeues is recognized by cognoscenti throughout the world for quality and innovation. Now, teNeues presents an astonishingly beautiful collection of photographs by Guido Argentini.
The Florentine born Argentini studied medicine at the University of Florence for several years before turning his eye and heart to photography. Adept at shooting models in the studio or in natural landscapes, Argentini has photographed for Vogue, Marie Claire, Playboy, and Max.
With unerring eye his focus is on the female form which, with his camera, becomes a work of art. Silvereye holds a double visual pleasure - the first series of photos was shot at various locations around the world, while the second reveals dancers and gymnasts photographed in a studio.
By covering the female bodies with a thin coating of oil or metallic paint then lighting them to perfection the forms become estimable works of art, both erotic and arresting.
Those with an appreciation of beauty will be delighted with Argentini's work.
