Dirk Reinartz Figurative Photography

German, 1947-2004

Dirk Reinartz was hired in 1970 as the latest reportage photographer in the Stern editorial team. Later he worked for the news magazine Der Spiegel as well as for Die Zeit, GEO and Life. The topics of his reports were preferably documentary in nature with a clear political connection with Germany and its history. According to his statement, he never wanted to work with a raised index finger and developed his artistic language for the picture. He became famous with a series on Bismarck monuments and the impressive cycle totenstill (1994), on former concentration camps. Reinartz taught at the Muthesius Kunsthochschule Kiel Fotografie. His collaboration with the American sculptor Richard Serra, whose work he has been accompanying throughout the world for more than two decades, is also remarkable. He lived in Buxtehude and died in Berlin, the place of one of his last great exhibitions, at the age of 56 years. The Suermondt-Ludwig-Museum in Aachen exhibited until February 6, 2011 an exhibition with about 150 photographs from his entire work.

ABOUT THE ARTIST Internationally recognized photographer, Giuliano Bekor, holds a portfolio that includes work from the realms of fashion, beauty, celebrity, advertising, and fine art. Giuliano’s photography has been featured in top publications around the globe, and his client list includes an endless file of beauty industry leaders, advertising agencies, celebrities, producers, and artists. With 30 years in the industry, Giuliano has perfected his craft to an exceptional level of expertise. Composed of light, color, space and form, Giuliano brings ideas conceptualized in his own imagination into reality throughout his work. Currently living between New York and Los Angeles, Giuliano is often on the move traveling for work and inspiration. Always the restless visionary, he ceases to continually express his fresh and nuanced style. For Giuliano Bekor, a photograph is an image that comes into being consciously, composed of light, color, space and form. Like a painter, he sketches, refining ideas through pen and pencil well before the shutter clicks. A camera is strictly a means to an end, a way of making a palpable visual record of an idea that gestates in his mind, gains shape by his hand, and resolves through his eye as it peers through the lens. His subject is the human body, almost always nude. These images delve into the splendor of the body - how it can express the inner meaning of who we are. Limbs, torsos, muscles and bones are exposed as though carved out of a supple, glowing stone that flexes and twists. Many of these photographs feature subjects posed with the eyes obscured, the face covered. If we look closely, Bekor says, we can see that the body is as much a window into the soul as the eyes. This is a gallery of the soul etched into the forms we assume in the physical world. Through exaggerated contrast between light and dark, smooth and textured, vaporous and tactile, Giuliano deliberately filters the extraneous. The camera captures the image, but for Bekor each exposure is a transformation - of himself, his subjects, and us. He is digging into uneasy turf, fraught with tension: masculine/feminine, heroic/cowardly, shameless/shameful, eternal/fleeting. The intensity of detail, the fiercely exquisite perfection of the bodies themselves, the unflinching, scrupulous engagement of the lens, negates all pretense of politeness. Confronted, we are summoned to look. So we must. And we do. And we experience the beautiful human forms we inhabit and the silent, eloquent language they speak.
