For his book about his collection, Lothar Schirmer asked a few people to write about a photographer of their choice.
I wrote about Jeanloup Sieff.
Jeanloup Sieff!
He is the first photographer I ever met.
A mythic studio on the top floor of a building in the Rue Ampère, whose staircase he used for a long time as décor.
I even remember his old phone number, AMP 13.
When I lived in New York, I called and visited him every time I was in Paris.
In 2000, he welcomed me with his eternal smile and the words, “Jean-Jacques, if you’re gushing blood, something is wrong. This is serious! That’s what’s happening to me.” Three months later, he was dead.
He, who loved life so much, along with photography, tap dancing, and women.
He is one of the greatest sensual and erotic photographers in the history of the still image.
Each of his nudes is a hymn to women and a display of desire.
How beautiful can seduction be when it happens at this level.
