My thanks to the magnificent models that have, with great talent and great complicity, contributed to make

this photo-book live.

Artistic nude, sometimes with a humorous pinch, is a subject with whom I deal with passion, both for my

photos and my videos. With more than 150 000 negative within three years, I have realized videos – Listen

to my photos – that have been exposed at the European Festival of Nude Artistic Photography of Arles in

May 2009.

Still, the power of fascination that nudity exerts on art remains intact. With the incoming digital photography,

ways of creation remains infinite.

In this book, I wished to underline the contrast that lay between “exhibited nudity” and “suggested nudity”,

between “forbidden nudity” or “shy nudity” and “natural nudity”…

Nude or not to be…, is that really the question ?

So far, until an answer occurs, I hope that you will enjoy as much pleasure watching this book as I had

making it.
