'Hans has shot some of the worlds most successful male fitness models, and many of the images captures have become iconic depictions of the male form. I believe many of the images within The Naked Truth are destined to join them. An extensive collection of work, as you turn each page, a new theme and visual experience is unveiled. Hans beautifully pairs each page with models, pose, energy, color and motif creating dynamic visuals and interplay between the images on the page.'
The quote above is part of the forward that I was privileged to contribute for artist Hans Fahrmeyer's new book, The Naked Truth. Living in a small country town, the Internet opened up a world of art and imagery Hans images were some of the first images that I noticed, enjoyed and collected after I first got on-line. Hans is one of my favorite chroniclers of the male form, and has been one of FH's longest, and most generous contributors. Since first featuring Hans' work back in 2009, Sunday's With Hans quickly became a FH staple, and has reached over 80 unique stories featuring dozens of models in hundreds of sensually charged images.
Hans Fahrmeyer's images are bold, colorful and unabashedly sensual. The intent is to evoke desire, and the intention is clear in the eyes of each model, and on each and every page.. This energy is palatable and through his use of vibrant colors, uniquely body poses and positions, as well a his creative editing, Hans channels this energy into images drenched in both intensity and urgency.
The Naked Truth is more than just a photo book, the 150 plus pages inside are a virtual visual history and encyclopedia of Hans years of shooting the male form. Hans not only displays a wide variety of themes and styles in the book, he wove them together, specifically choosing which images should be side by side. Hans' goal, to weave the artistic with the erotic, is there visually with each turn of the page. All of of the models you know and love when you think of Hans work are are included, as well as many new models and images never seen before.
As you can see from the preview video below, Hans holds nothing back, beautifully exposing The Naked Truth.
