Guido Argentini was born in Florence, Italy in 1966. He lives and works in between Los Angeles, Florence and Rio. Argentini blends the erotic and artistic in his photographs.
"Shades of a Woman" looks like a sequence of frames taken from a film: the script, the soundtrack, the words and the silences are all left to the imagination of the viewer.
Guido Argentini has exhibited internationally in galleries in Europe, Brazil, Japan and in the United States.

Guido Argentini
Guido Argentini is widely known for his evocative landscapes and stylized color nude photography. The Los Angeles-based artist has freelanced for numerous magazines and has garnered acclaim for his book, Silvereye, which collects sensual photography of nude female models that have been covered in metallic chrome paint.
Born in Florence, Italy, Argentini initially studied medicine at the University of Florence. He left after three years of study to pursue an interest in photography — a passion that brought him to the United States in 1990.
Since the debut of Silvereye in 2003, Argentini has published Private Rooms, Reflections and Shades of a Woman. An admirer of performance art as well as visual art — he has drawn on sculptures by Michelangelo, Auguste Rodin and Constantin Brâncuși — Argentini explored a fusion of motion and eroticism for the images of ballet dancers that are collected in 2013’s Argentum.
Renowned publications such as Vogue, Marie Claire and Playboy have all featured Argentini’s photography. His work has been exhibited at Todd Kaplan Gallery in California, the James Gallery in Russia and elsewhere.
