Limited to 1,000 copies, each numbered and signed by the
photographer. A decade after his first TASCHEN book, Deux ex
Machina, Ralph Gibson is back, with an extensive collection of
nudes, including his best recent work as well as an interview by
Eric Fischl. Strikingly contrasted and meticulously composed,
Gibsons photographs pay tribute to some of the mediums greatest
practitioners, such as Man Ray and Edward Weston, while venturing
into uncharted waters. Says Gibson: A photographer once said that
beauty in women is endless. Perhaps it was I who said it. In fact,
I remember distinctly having done soand the thought persists to
this day. We stare in the psychological mirror of the human body
with a fascination that endures indefinitely. At least art history
indicated this to be so. The Willendorf Venus is said to date from
25,000 BCthat is a old enough for me to believe in the subject. I
love photographing women and could say that the form of the female
body is absolute and perfect.
