As I See It
- Used Book in Good Condition
Three years ago, photographer Greg Gorman created for powerHouse Books the most personal work of his career. This epic artistâ€™s project features carefully selected young menâ€”not big or overly builtâ€”who exemplify for Gorman a perfected state, allowing him to frame grace, beauty, and elegance in the form of the male nude. Included amongst the 212 portraits are many of Gormanâ€™s friends and acquaintances, as well as professional models, many of whom had never posed nude before. The initial release of the book went on to become a best-seller.

The cumulative effect of As I See It creates a pleasurable zone of contemplation, allowing one to reexamine the precepts of beauty within a refreshing framework of exalted maleness. According to Gorman, â€œAs I see it, theyâ€™re not really boys, yet theyâ€™re not really men. They are caught somewhere in betweenâ€”almost at that point of maturity that defines masculinity.â€

â€œThe display of the male body has been fraught with significance for centuries....Gorman portrays the male body without stripping it bare of power or poignance. Itâ€™s a new approach to an old, old idea.â€
