Erwin Olaf - Silver







Erwin Olaf - Silver, Published to accompany an exhibition of the same name at the Groningen Museum, Silver presents a survey of 25 years of Erwin Olaf's photography. This retrospective includes a wide selection of Olaf's work, including his documentary and advertising photography, and videos/films he has made. Erwin Olaf is one of the few Dutch photographers who has been successful in both the advertising world and the gallery and museum circuit, adding elements of fantasy, humour and eroticism to the tradition of the Dutch glamour portrait. This book includes, among others, the series 'Mind of their Own' (1995) and 'Mature' (2000), in which Olaf photographed young people with Down's syndrome and aged women like real glamour models.
