Ein ästhetisch übergreifendes und künstlerisch überzeugendes Konzept entwickelt der in London geborene und heute in Pennsylvania lebende Photograph Olaf Starorypinski und geht in seinen aufregenden Bildern gleichermaßen der männlichen wie weiblichen erotischen Ausstrahlung nach. Nicht nur seine Modelle, auch seine Bildkompositionen wirken im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes kraftvoll und lebendig. Wobei er in seinen weiblichen Akten auch ruhigere Akzente setzt, um dem Betrachter eine Atempause zu gönnen. Summa summarum, sind die hier ausgestellten Bilder eine Augenweide und machen auf weitere Arbeiten von Olaf Starorypinski neugierig.

Olaf Starorypinski was born in London, England, in 1964, the son of Polish immigrants. Olaf has always been fascinated with light and he developed an interest in photography and in lighting during his high school years. He has been involved in lighting design for nearly 20 years, including design companies both in the UK and the USA. Olaf moved to the Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania, in 1990. While lighting design became his profession, photography was always a passion. Stylistic influences include David Bailey, Robert Mapplethorpe, Howard Schatz, Herb Ritts, and Helmut Newton. Although the scope of Olaf's subjects is broad, his primary interest has always been people. Olaf's experience and knowledge of light is the primary influence in his photographic work. Using light to 'sculpt' subjects he creates images from a unique perspective. Critics have described his photographs as "dynamic and sculptural", "works of subtlety and power", and "visual intrigue." Olaf resides in Emmaus, Pennsylvania, with his wife, daughter, two spoiled felines, and one intrepid smooch dawg. |
