Over het boek
Rudolf Bonvie's "Dialog" series has been shared thousands of times
at social networks like Tumblr.
And it has inspired some creative montages - the most alluring being the reference to Michelangelo's famous "Creation of Adam" at the Sistine Chapel (1511-12).
In Michelangelo's fresco (mural painting) god is giving life to Adam.
This work based on a biblical scene has become iconic for the creation of mankind.
Rudolf Bonvie did not use Michelangelo's work as direct reference, nevertheless "Dialog 3" is frequently being associated with Michelangelo's painting.
Bonvie tells in his photo a more personal story. It shows two hands touching on a bed [the hands are the artist's and his artist girlfriend's from back then].
A certain warmth is derived from the artist's use of color and light.
The scene shows a delicate, intimate and fragile connection between two lovers.
Rudolf Bonvie was born in 1947. Having spent many years in France, he now lives and works near Cologne, Germany. In addition to many individual exhibitions including in Museum Folkwang (Essen 1988), Lenbachhaus (Munich 1991) and Kunstverein Karlsruhe (Karlsruhe 1990), he has been involved in a number of significant group exhibitions.
These include 'Die Reste des Authentischen' at Museum Folkwang, Essen (1986), 'Blow up' at Kunstverein Stuttgart (1987), 'Fotografie in der deutschen Gegenwartskunst' at Museum Ludwig, Cologne (1993), and 'Deutschlandbilder' at Martin-Gropius-Bau, Berlin (1997).
His works can be found in the Museum of Modern Art (New York), Museum of Fine Arts (Houston), Museum Folkwang (Essen), Lenbachhaus (Munich), ZKM (Karlsruhe), Museum Ludwig (Cologne) and in the Staatsgalerie (Stuttgart) as well as in numerous German and US private collections.
