About the Item

All prints are done and signed by the artist. The collector receives an additional certificate of authenticity from the gallery.
In 1985, Axl Rose co-founded the American hard rock band Guns n' Roses, a defining part of the 80s and 90s culture. Sante D'Orazio photographed the band's front singer in 1993, and even though the singer's face is not part of the image, his tattoos make him easily identifiable. The portrait depicts the singer nude, only covering himself with a human skull he is holding in front of his body. This unconventional Portrait captures the rockstars' attitude perfectly.
Kate Moss lounging cigarette in hand, Pamela Anderson captivating the camera with ruffled hair—star photographer Sante D'Orazio has an eye for sex appeal. Celebrating and cannibalizing his Italian-Catholic heritage, he reveres female beauty in all its evanescence. Zooming in on impulsive movements, fleeting glances, and coquettish poses, D'Orazio masters effortless composition. His photographs are an ode to excess and rock 'n' roll, turning celebrities into modern gods.

Sante D´ Orazio
Photographer Sante D'Orazio has provided the world with an up-close and personal look at some of the most iconic celebrities. His black and white photographs capture the who’s who of the moment, including supermodels, movie stars, musicians, actors and artists. These photographs have a raw and informal feel, yet they evoke the natural and uncensored beauty of the subjects.
D'Orazio was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1956. His interest in art was piqued while attending Brooklyn College, and he later trained under painter Philip Pearlstein and photographer Lou Bernstein. In 1981, D'Orazio started working for Vogue Italia. His photographs caught the eye of Interview magazine — founded by American artist Andy Warhol and British journalist John Wilcock — which led to attention from magazines like Allure, Vanity Fair and GQ. He quickly became known for his provocative, intimate and sensual images.
Many of the major stars of the 1980s, 1990s and today have been photographed by D'Orazio. They include Angelina Jolie, Robert De Niro, Sharon Stone, Michelle Pfeiffer, Kate Moss, Mike Tyson, Christy Turlington, Johnny Depp, Heidi Klum, Drew Barrymore, Keith Richards and Pamela Anderson.
His nude photographs and portraits have been featured in top fashion magazines and exhibitions worldwide, including at Haus der Kunst, Munich, Stellan Holm Gallery in New York and Galería Hilario Galguera in Mexico City. He has published six books of photography, including Sante D'Orazio Photographs, Pam: American Icon and Barely Private. His work was featured at Art Rotterdam 2022, a premier photography, art and design festival in the Netherlands.
