Jerry at VMM recently posted a photograph attributed to Cadinot. I immediately thought of Jean-Daniel Cadinot, the French director of gay porn who made dozens of films (videos) from the 1980s until his death in 2008.
I was unaware that M. Cadinot was a prolific photographer of young nude men during the 1970s. After a quick search on the Internet box I found a number of sites showcasing his work. It seems Cadinot did not give titles to his photographs, nor did he identify his models.
The top photo is from 1974 and the bottom photo is from 1978. The photo in the center was taken sometime in between.
These are fine photos, particularly the 1974, and they leave me wondering if Mr. Cadinot's film work was as artistic. And thanks for the credit on the inspiration! You went somewhere nice with it.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure many of his film fans would agree Cadinot had an artistic flair in making them.
