As I See It FROM OUR EDITORS
As I See It is master lensman Greg Gorman's vivid exploration of the male nude, in all its exquisite beauty. Nearly 250 duotone portraits capture the frank essence of young men -- some models, some acquaintances posing for the first time -- on the cusp of full maturity. Gorman's vision of the male form is stellar, a photographic celebration of rarefied masculine perfection.
FROM THE PUBLISHER
Internationally acclaimed photographer Greg Gorman has just completed his most personal work to date: the male figure study. Twenty years in the making, this epic artist's project features carefully selected young men--not big or overly built--who exemplify for Gorman a perfected state, allowing him to frame grace, beauty, and elegance in the form of the male nude. Included amongst the 240-plus portraits are many of Gorman's friends and acquaintances, as well as professional models, many of whom had never posed nude before. The cumulative effect of As I See It creates a pleasurable zone of contemplation, allowing one to reexamine the precepts of beauty within a refreshing framework of exalted maleness. According to Gorman, "As I see it, they're not really boys, yet they're not really men. They are caught somewhere in between--almost at that point of maturity that defines masculinity."
