Pandemonium
"Pandemonium" draws inspiration from classical painting, utilizing Latin titles to invoke the elegance and depth of bygone eras while giving each work added dimension and intensity. The name "Pandemonium," derived from ancient Greek, refers to the mythical capital of the underworld, yet the artist's intent is not solely focused on the Renaissance or the 18th century. Instead, it encompasses influences from ancient Greece and Rome.This series highlights a fascinating paradox: although the artistic nude has been permitted and even celebrated across ages, it was never fully embraced by society, traditionally more puritanical. Today, despite a significant liberalization of sexuality and a greater acceptance of nudity, the art of the nude still elicits discomfort. This notion of taboo, almost demonic, surrounding artistic nudity challenges the artist, who seeks to show that the nude has always been a cultural meeting point, tolerated but often marginalized, regardless of social mores' evolution.The 8th collection from the ambitious project "Nude in the Living-Room" aims to create the most extensive photographic anthology celebrating humanity in its most authentic form, its diversity, and nudity. Through this photographic art, the goal is to gather an exceptional collection of portraits from volunteers of all backgrounds and ages, forming a dazzling gallery that celebrates the universal splendor of the human form, beyond the confines imposed by contemporary socio-cultural and aesthetic norms. "Pandemonium," with its visual richness and profound message, invites art collectors and photography enthusiasts to ponder the role of the artistic nude through the ages, while admiring the timeless beauty of human expression.
Nude in the Living Room
“Who’s that Nude In The Living Room?” is a unique artistic project which aims to constitute the largest photographic series ever made representing humanity as it is, in its most natural state, its nudity and its diversity.
Developed by photographer Idan Wizen, this concept of photographic art aims to bring together thousands of models, volunteers of all ages and from all part of society to constitute a huge bank of portraits of men and women of today who have agreed to to show themselves as they are, nude.
These photographs, in their multitude and the originality of each one of them, their dynamism and their naturalness, show to universal human beauty, far beyond the restrictive socio-cultural and aesthetic criteria of our time.
Anyone who poses in his simplest device participates by his own personality, his differences and his particularities in the universality of the humankind.
Idan Wizen has chosen to exacerbate the true authenticity of each of his models, breaking their possible masks, exposing through each of them, the simple and nude beauty of human nature.
He also defies the usual criteria of nude photography with his shocking photos, with a strong artistic bias, where the spontaneous provocation of one model can rub shoulders with the cheerful and naive expression of another, or the modest revelation of a third.
The uniformity of the beauty criteria of our society as well as its modes of expression, “Who’s that Nude In The Living Room?” opposes the multitude, the variety, the strength of character, the movement, the surprising and the natural to the state gross of mankind.
Each photo is unique as its model, and never touched up. This inevitably challenges us and creates in us a curious feeling of closeness, of belonging. Because these models are all of us.
Moved or upset by the freshness of a smile, the roundness of a curve, a playful look, a cry of release or the fragility of a silhouette, we would like to keep one of these photos with us, the image of a being among the multitude of the human race, a nude in the living room!
