Frank P. Wartenberg - Colorpoints

With an unerring sense of the contemporary in photography, wartenberg stages dreams, emotions, and moods in his pictures, underscoring the beauty of the models while allowing the viewer room for imaginative interpretation. The central focus of the Hamburg photographer's work is the human being, whom he portrays masterfully and with considerable aesthetic appeal. His spectrum ranges from reduction of the subject to essential details, to opulently staged scenes in vivid color. A particularly remarkable aspect of Wartenberg's work is his unique sense of color and special effects, which he creates through masterful use of lighting manipulated with the sensitivity of a painter. He also employs a diverse selection of technical approaches, including 35mm shots "on location", medium- or large-format work in the studio, and Polaroid 50 x 60 exposures. /// This is a 1st edition hardback with its dustjacket, in new condition.
