Ryan McGinley Exhibit

In preparation for his upcoming exhibit Ryan McGinley shot some 4000 rolls of film and 150,000 images were narrowed down to just 50 for the 'I Know Where The Summer Goes' exhibit.

And that hard work can be clearly seen in his work. The show is nothing short of hauntingly beautiful. All nudes, the photos are really quite stunning, some very serene and calm, and others vibrant and colourful that appear to pull you into them. Most of the photos contain some kind of movement, and one even a black bear.

Locations for shoots don't really get more diverse than this, from waterfalls to sand dunes, mountains and rivers, although surprisingly the whole show was shot in and around the USA.

My favourite image is by far 'Falling Water' a woman diving into water, surprisingly enough. But strangely reminiscent of the infamous 9/11 Falling Man photo shot by Richard Drew.
Its a hugely tranquil picture that just invites you to join her for a swim.
