NUDI - Paolo Roversi
The first book by fashion photographer Paolo Roversi, Nudi brings together forty-nine portraits of models who have agreed to pose nude. The book's sobriety is exemplary, bordering on minimalism, as if the unveiling of the bodies imposed a sense of contemplation. By choosing the idea of a confrontation, rather than a Pirelli calendar-style striptease effect, Roversi offers his young models a new framework for life. Suddenly mere mortals again, with nothing to sell, neither clothes nor products, they freely face the lens, sometimes playing with their hands or hair to hide breasts or genitals. Or standing proudly, legs spread, as if they wanted to put to death their past of exemplary beauty.
