With the Series 'Private Rooms' Argentini plays with our notion of privacy and constructs a hidden erotic universe in which we never know what we will encounter - our deepest erotic fantasies or even a parallel world. The sizzling erotic images, both artistic and simple, are characterized by a dark glamour all of their own.
This work is a bird' s-eye view of an L-shaped couch and glass coffee table. A model is lounging on the sofa, one of her legs resting on the backrest. She is only wearing black stockings and smoking a cigarette, not acknowledging the camera.
The square black and white image has a graphic, almost abstract look. The model's light skin contrasts against the dark interior. The implied voyeurism adds another layer of interest to this piece.
Dramatic poses, tender touches, and longing glances populate Guido Argentini’s photographic landscape. The Italian star photographer, celebrated in all genres, has a particular gift for the female nude. Juxtaposing and contextualizing the female body through cityscapes and the natural environment, Argentini playfully compares color, forms, and moods. His diptychs and singles are suffused with a sense of longing and memory. From beauties in pompous buildings to bondage – the self-taught artist explores every dimension of sensuality. Eternalizing the female form in gold and silver, Argentini elevates his subjects to goddesses and mythical creatures of age-old tales.
