"Robert Greene is not like other artists-or rather otherartists are not like Robert Greene. Greene is like a diamondin the rough-one of those unexpected gifts that come alongevery so often." -Jerry Saltz "With an abundance of wet, hairy nudity and tropical hues, Greene evokes summer at its sexiest and most seductive." -Vince Aletti Painterly rhythms have seeped their way into RobertGreene's world of photography in Hairy, a collection ofGreene's images taken over many years, in many places, of many dogs, and many hairy men. An undercurrent of???ber-masculinity and its sexiness is revealed, yet notin the familiar form of muscular, hard-jawed, clean-cutyouth. Instead, Greene celebrates a more restrained andnaturalistic virility. Greene's photographic eye is full of adoration for hissubjects and their environments. There is a very intimate, personal feeling here; one not posed, but observed andcaptured. Greene shifts from long-range portraiture, to close-upshots where specific textures, shapes, and tones becomethe subject of the image. This abstraction weaves a visualspell, such that even those without a predilection for hirsutemen will be enthralled. The photographs provide the spacefor longing, imagination, and adventure. Hairy is an unusuallyquintessential book-portraying an incredibly focused andfleshed-out vision of a very beautiful, hairy world where man, dog, and nature swirl together. Hairy will be released in conjunction with an exhibition atRobert Miller Gallery in New York City.
