Photographers - Part 17

Anderson and Low

Jonathan Anderson (right) and Edwin Low (left) are London-based fine art photographers who have collaborated since 1990.  They are known for projects about costume and identity and for their studies of athletes, many of which are nude.

One series depicted the Danish National Gymnastic Team.  Above, Seven Handstands.

Other photos in the Danish National Gymnastics Team series illustrated the "elements" earth, air, fire and water.  Above, Fire #9.

Fire #10.

Sky (air) #25.

They also photographed many other nude athletes.  Above, Darren Mew, UK swimmer.  I could have cropped and brightened the photo, but the lighting and the off-center composition are deliberate.

Ross Brewer, UK gymnast.

Steve McCain, U.S. gymnast.

I'll end with Ben Couchman, U.S. water polo player.  He's not nude, but unless my eyes deceive me, he's sporting quite a bulge.

Looks like the nude models were instructed to deliberately tuck the goods out of frame.
