CALIFORNIA BASED Kuhn took her nude portraits in a French naturist resort in 2006 where she holidays each year. The photographs – some of the glimpses through a window or partially out-of-focus - put the viewer in a voyeuristic position. The figures appear relaxed and comfortable, unstirred by the presence of camera but looking towards it thus acknowledging its presence.
Jarach Gallery is showing all 23 photographs as published in the book of the same name by Steidl (see our review in the Books section).
