Deeper Shades of Paris – Andreas H. Bitesnich

Austrian star photographer Andreas H. Bitesnich is considered a master of nude and fashion photography.But his talent reaches well beyond just the perfect presentation of aesthetic female physiques. With his latest works, DEEPER SHADES OF PARIS, the master of minutely detailed studio compositions proves that he is just as capable of capturing street scenes as he is of thoroughly arranged scenarios. Andreas H. Bitesnich was born in Vienna in 1964 and trained to be a shopkeeper after finishing secondary school. His passion for photography began following a trip to Milan, where he was inspired to buy his first camera after being enraptured by the fashion photography of a colleague.Since 1989, Andreas H. Bitesnich has dedicated himself entirely to photography and can be found on display in solo and group exhibitions in renowned galleries and museums around the world, such as the Museum für Kunst & Gewerbe in Hamburg and the Kunsthaus Wien. His first book, Nudes, was published in 1998 and won the Kodak Photography Book Award. The famed photographs of Bitesnich’s successful artistic oeuvre demonstrate unmistakably unique textures and have been used for numerous national and international advertising campaigns. He has made portraits of countless important and historic personalities, such as Anthony Quinn, Leni Riefenstahl, and Reinhold Messner. Andreas H. Bitesnich lives and works in Austria.
