Fine Art Nudes have one of the longest traditions in art, probably as much as landscapes, portraits and many other subjects. Considered to be one of “Gods’ greatest creations”, the human body has been studied, drawn and sculpted for centuries. A tour of any of the worlds’ finest museums will reveal thousands of these fine art pieces created by the great masters.
It is unfortunate that photography has gotten such a bad rap in the past over nudes. This is primarily a result of amateurs taking crude pictures by the millions for no other purpose than for sexual expression. It’s easy to snap a shutter but a lot harder to paint an oil on canvas. As a result of this, fine art nude photography has suffered from a lack of social acceptance and many view this field with suspicion.
In recent years, things have improved immensely as more and more competent professional photographers approach this subject with class and elegance. Their work graces the pages of many mainstream magazines, art galleries and advertising campaigns. Their work exemplifies the true nature of fine art nudes and as a result, this field has become more and more accepted as a true form of art.
Unlike the cheap and tawdry counterparts, fine art nude photography is not sexual and is intended to celebrate the human form using light, shadow and composition to create breathtaking artistic creations that are both beautiful and thought provoking. many respectable and well known celebrities have fine art nude art photos displayed in their homes and offices.
In Europe, acceptance came very quickly and today you will see fine art nude photo art in almost every gallery. North America has been much slower to accept this art form primarily due to the ultra conservative history of its’ settlers and the resulting moral stigmas that have been carried forth from generation to generation.
