Calves and Thighs

Catalogue to the solo-exhibtion of Juergen Teller during PhotoEspaña in Madrid, curated by Paul Wombell, that brings together family-photographs, self-potraits, and landscapes interspersed with shots of models, musicians and actresses.

Teller’s work is an exercise of style that defies the conventions of traditional photographic genres. This refusal to differentiate between commercial assignments and his more autobiographical work has given rise to the uniquely personal style that can be contemplated in this selection.
