As part of Eyes on, Month of Photography 2010, presented the art com gallery with “taint Go” two at first glance controversial seemingly photographic positions on eroticism: Gerhard Aba has the stigma imposed on the erotic symbol, while Martin Siebenbrunner his idea of eroticism in the representation of reality looks flawless bodies.
Here, the opposites ends there, but there are two decisive events in which they give up their bread and professions exclusively were turning to photography. Are common to both the interest in erotic productions and the high standards of technical and aesthetic perfection. Siebenbrunner staged his paintings as moments of temptation in an elegant atmosphere: glances, gestures, poses, beautiful, flawless women in direct interaction with the photographer. Eroticism of the moment. In 2010 he received the FIAP (Federation Internationale de l’Art Photographique), 2008 with a gold medal at the THEMES CIRCUIT – excellent, with which he can connect with the recently awarded “Gold Medal of Excellence” – one of the world’s largest photographic awards. One focus of the “Photo Artworks” by Gerhard Aba is the theme of “taint” dedicated. For years the artist has developed cooperative relationships with female amputees. The artworks are characterized by the models with openness and authenticity and the courage to tell the story of this unusual form of eroticism in women, beyond stereotypes, prejudice and superficiality. Aba has won numerous awards for his work. His films have been broadcast on ORF, his last book “Call of the asymmetry” in the Leopold Museum is presenting.
