Picture album nu of the "the Publishing house "Art-City" - is the first in history of new Russia and is also the most representative both on geography of participants and on art styles variety. It was waited for a long time. It is even strange, that during the epoch which has grasped us of acceptable freedom and popularity of photo art any album in a genre nu was not published yet.
The reader, or it is better to say the spectator, will find here all palette of art manifests. Having got acquainted with an album it is probably, that you will receive the answer to a question why images of the naked bodies which are evident from advertising posters, from pages of newspapers and glamour magazines, from telescreens frequently are not art.
It is difficult to define a circle of addressees of an album: the rare person will be left indifferent with a theme nu. Even for strict morals campaigners it can become the sample of that is admissible in the modern photo art. The one, who loves video and интернетную sensuality and pornography, will not receive only "easy" pleasure. The art-photo demands concentration, cultural memory and work of imagination. Been born in XIX century, the photo has changed a way of perception of the world, but it has not stopped. In fact simply naked body shows nothing except for itself: nu includes a context, demands for perception of involving of all culture. But cleanly literary perusal of nu interferes to see after image other image, to track history of a plot, to see its source.
And at last, appeal of this album not in ethnographic exotic, not in satisfaction of need for a visual adventure, not in demonstration of struggle for the rights of the naked body to be, but in understanding of that in each photo besides an exposure, is the art logic, the mood, the idea. This album will fill a lacuna of domestic photo editions in the nu genre. For the photo expert and the genre expert it will rise on a shelf where already there are foreign anthologies and albums nu different quality and different advantage. This is the occasion to compare.
