(Greg Gorman's portraits and sensuous male and female nude...)
Greg Gorman's portraits and sensuous male and female nudes are renowned for their atmospheric lighting, flawless posing and composition, and unabashed sense of glamour and eroticism. His celebrity subjects have included Kim Basinger, Pierce Brosnan, Antonio Banderas, Anthony Hopkins, David Bowie, and Martina Navratilova. In Just Between Us, Gorman delves deeper into his obsession with the male nude, focusing his lens exclusively on one model, also named Greg. During the year of shooting, an unusual collaborative relationship evolves between Gorman and his subject, resulting in a photographic narrative unfettered by convention. A cinematic journey that explores the deepest aspects of mutual trust, Just Between Us features 250 photographs and is Gorman's most inspired body of work to date.
