About the Item

Grace Jones and Dolph Lundgren, New York, photographed by Albert Watson in 1983. All prints are limited edition. Available in multiple sizes. High-end framing on request. All prints are done and signed by the artist. The collector receives an additional certificate of authenticity from the gallery. This striking photograph by Albert Watson, taken in 1983, features Grace Jones and Dolph Lundgren in a powerful and dynamic pose that radiates strength and sensuality. The composition highlights the intense physicality of the subjects, with Lundgren standing firmly, his muscular frame supporting Jones, who is perched on his back in a commanding embrace. Her expression is fierce and unwavering, embodying her iconic presence, while his gaze is direct and intense, complementing her energy. The interplay of their contrasting skin tones is accentuated by the monochromatic palette, with Watson’s expert lighting creating sculptural highlights and shadows that emphasize the contours of their bodies. The simplicity of their attire and the stark white background allow the focus to remain on their form, posture, and the raw emotional connection conveyed. This portrait symbolizes both partnership and individuality, encapsulating Jones' avant-garde persona and Lundgren's imposing physicality. It is a timeless image that reflects Watson’s ability to capture the essence of his subjects with both artistic and narrative depth. From the Olympus of the music industry to the Oscar portrait studio - Mark Seliger's oeuvre is a tribute to art and pop culture in modern America. Starting as a magazine photographer who went on to shoot over 100 Rolling Stone covers, Seliger is known for his meticulously planned portraits. Whether highly conceptual or intuitive, his photographs of David Bowie, Nirvana, or the Rolling Stones radiate an intellectual coolness. Seliger's portraits walk the fine line between hyper-reality and surrealism, revealing a sense of honesty that's unique in celebrity photography. His work stands out for combining technical precision with an almost painterly attention to composition and lighting.
