A bright red F1 Ferrari contrasted against the deep blue ocean. The driver is casually sitting on his car. His back is turned towards the camera, looking at a group of beautiful, tanned women in black bikinis. This eye-catching piece by Tony Kelly is a tribute to the golden days of F1 when tobacco companies proudly plastered their logos on cars while the legendary drivers enjoyed late nights, fine champagne, and fast ladies. F1 was one of the world’s most dangerous and exciting forms of sport, and the equally high risks and rewards were ever-present. But what would it feel like to be such a driver, and what if that diver took a slight diversion from the race track and pointed his Ferrari up Avenue du Port and onward to St Jean Cap Ferrat to spend the day on the beach with some local bronzed beauties enjoying the delights the Riviera has to offer? Tony Kelly's images are rich in color, and his visual language is easily recognizable, inviting the viewer to a slightly surreal and humorous dreamworld. Tony Kelly is one of the most influential fine art photographers of our time. He plays with humor and provocation, and although highly polished, his work is playfully subversive, which forces you to stop and think, inviting us to venture beneath the glossy veneer and confront stereotypes, taboos, and role reversals. Kelly was born in Dublin, Ireland, in 1975. He cut his teeth as a photojournalist, capturing the burgeoning celebrity culture in a city embracing newfound wealth. His voracious appetite for blue skies and sun-drenched panoramas drew him to Barcelona, where he embraced the "street voyeur" within. His quirky spin on daily life and the cultural idiosyncrasies surrounding him quickly became his distinctive signature style. "My aesthetic is fun, colourful, vibrant and sexy. In terms of maintaining authorship, it's a very natural process. If you're true to yourself and your ideas, the rest takes care of itself. My work is a reflection of who I am, it's a reflection of myself. "Tony Kelly always delivers a dash of self-irony to the naked skin and tells a story.
