Marco Tenaglia
Italy • 1971
Presentation
Italian photographer Marco Tenaglia is known for his daring and provocative fashion portraiture. His bold and intriguing photographic vision is the result of a mixture of both contemporary and classic styles. Tenaglia's women aren't classical expression of beauty.
Often photographed in recurring poses, placed in luxury or decadent settings, they show a strong personality and a sort of cold sensuality. His photographs are balancing on this fine and sometimes tricky line between fashion-beauty-glamour and erotic-sexy-trashy, resulting in elegant and sophisticated black and white photography with a timeless quality and the perfection of imperfection. Born and based in Rome, Italy.
