From the Publisher
In his foreword to the book, Nick Johnson, the curator of the prestigious Gallery One at the New England School of Photography, where Spada recently had a one-man exhibition of these photographs, has written: "James Spada is a gifted artist whose images are both beautiful and moving. Much of his work is reminiscent of classical painting and sculpture, particularly Michelangelo’s statue of David. In these photographs one sees an idealized male form, muscles rippling, skin as smooth as marble, beautifully rendered through a masterful use of light and photographic technique. While Spada’s control of these formal qualities would alone set him apart from most photographers working with this subject matter, his images contain other elements that rarely find their way into male nudes and which give them their uniquely dimensional quality. The sensual eroticism that these photographs convey emerges not only from the innate grace of Spada’s subjects but from the way he see! s these men as an integral part of the light that describes them."
