WORKS BY GÜNTER BLUM AND GEORGE PLATT LYNES
2024-04-29The Fahey/Klein Gallery is pleased to present the two-person exhibition Anatomy of Devotion: Works by George Platt Lynes and Günter Blum. The photographs on display explore varying relationships between artist and muse and the intimate and complex interactions that fuel creative expression. Both Platt Lynes and Blum utilize photography to investigate a more profound expression of sexuality and the concept of desire through their subjects. The erotic charge in each work is unmistakable. Admiration and yearning are not hinted at but expressly declared. Their cameras transformed into a conduit for narratives of empowerment and self-expression. Both artists convey raw vulnerability while unveiling great defiance of stereotypes and constraints.
Opposite – Günter Blum, Barbie, 1993
