  • Jean-Daniel Lorieux Seducing the Lens

  • Oct 29, 2014 to Dec 6, 2014
  • Location: FIAF Gallery
  • Description:

    The Art of Sex and Seduction enters the gallery with striking portraits that are as erotic as they are sleek. A master of his craft, Jean-Daniel Lorieux’s work for the likes of Vogue, Dior, andLanvin has turned fashion photography into sensual iconography.

    Lorieux’s camera acts as a third eye, focusing on what is most exquisite in the world. He captures idealized images of women, glorifying them from dawn to dusk. Splendid, ethereal, and statuesque, these women inhabit a world created by Lorieux’s lens.
