ABOUT
Michael Baders photographic focus is on portraits and in the sphere of sport, placing athletes and their sport-specific movements in aesthetic surroundings. In this harsh and super fast-paced environment he has managed to create iconic and special settings, staging athletes in the ...moretudio as well as on location. Using a unique interpay of light and color, lines and forms, playing with perspectives and expectations. Michael manages to create beauty and sense of close comradeship where pain, exhaustion and absolute body control reign. Treating every sport as an art in its own right, he creates an aesthetic language for each of them, working the concept from the inside out, thereby truly revealing the intricacies of each sport and its protagonists. Michael’s work is characterised by precision, accuracy, revealing both intrinsic beauty and raw emotion. It is at once strong while retaining essential elements of softness. (show less)
