The Red Series by Christian Vogt, 1979
Swiss Artist and Photographer, Christian Vogt (b. 1946) (trained at the Basel Design School).
Christian's work spans the worlds of Advertising, Editorial, and Experimental Work including subjects in architecture, still life, nature, portraits, and erotic nudes. Christian's intention was to challenge the popular accepted notions of 'glamour' in photography. He was also interested in implied reflections, the 'picture within a picture'. The relationship between what was shown and what was left out.
Our blog logo is a portrait from the series, "12 Nudes"(1981). Tres, tres elegant. Thank you Christian.
"how, when and what comes together - this interests me, in photography, as well as in life..." - Christian Vogt
