David Vance is first an artist, a person who expresses himself through a medium - and David Vance's medium is the camera. In "Emotion - Photographs by David Vance" the critically acclaimed photographer shares his particular vision of emotions with us. "As a beauty addict, I am compelled photographing beautiful subjects. When I see something that is beautiful, I want to show it to the world the way I have experienced it," says Vance. Influenced by the great movie star portraits of George Hurrell and the great fashion photographers of the 1950s, Richard Avedon and Irving Penn, Vance creates an image world of its own: beautiful, sensual, and emotional.
