Fine Art Nude vs Artistic Nude vs Glamour Nude
I'd love to hear some definitions describing the difference between each. These are different descriptions used to categorize nude images on some modeling sites, and I was never really clear on what excactly establishes the difference between "fine art nude" and "artistic nude". I'd love to hear some opinions and thoughts on this. Thanks. Oct 07 07 07:27 pm Link Search function Oct 07 07 07:28 pm Link I don't consider mine glamour nudes if that helps.

Oct 07 07 07:32 pm Link Color is a fad which will go away soon... Oct 07 07 07:34 pm Link The difference between artistic nude and fine art nude is who likes the image. If a rich person likes it, it's fine art. If a major gallery likes it, it's fine art. If it's undiscovered or undesirable by the aristocracy then it's just artistic. In other words, fine art is only a class distinction, not an artistic distinction. Oct 07 07 07:35 pm Link EL Perdido wrote: I sure hope not. The idea of separating "artistic" or not based on color or mono is laughable. Oct 07 07 07:35 pm Link Fine Art Nude There is more than just a picture. Artistic Nude Color shit. Paint shit. Glamour Nude Boobs and pussy. Makeup included. Sorry if I made anyone feel offended. I attempted to humor at least one user. Oct 07 07 07:36 pm Link I actually dont really understand the difference between artistic and fine art nudes too. I dont really care anyway but still  Oct 07 07 07:38 pm Link MelissaLynnette LaDiva wrote: Sheesh. lol. Oct 07 07 07:38 pm Link EL Perdido wrote: I'm getting that part...

Oct 07 07 07:40 pm Link Fine Art Nude serious artsy stuff going on Artistic Nude crazy artsy stuff going on Glamour Nude sexy make-up big hair nude stuff going on Oct 07 07 07:41 pm Link The difference between fine art nudes, artistic nudes, and glamour nudes is, in my eyes, the following: fine art nudes are focused on the composition of the image(it's about shapes), artistic nudes are focused on the nude person(s)(it's about the subject), and glamour nudes are focused on the (usually idealized) sexuality of the nude person(s)(it's about the sex). Of course, they all overlap, and even with specific definitions such as this, disagreements about what fits where are inevitable. Here are some examples from my portfolio of the three (all 18+): A fine art nude. An artistic nude. A glamour nude. That's just my opinion, but keep in mind that I'm always correct. Always.

That's why I prefer to stay on MM over other sites that corner me to place images in categories. Oct 07 07 07:51 pm Link My head starts to hurt everytime somebody tries to define an image I captured. I don't know what to call it, sure, I can name it, but categorize it? Well, I can tell you how it made me feel. How does it make you feel... is certainly more important to me than what category its called. Gotta run... got more rules to break.

The focus is on the model's body. may be B&W or color. If model's cooter is shaved, it's glamour, not artistic. Fine art nude - shot outdoors or indoors with so much junk in the picture that you have to hunt for the naked model. Must be shot on outdated B&W film that somebody has had in their freezer for 20 years and hand printed on obscure fine art media paper imported from some eastern european country no one has ever heard of. Glamour nude - Nekkid chick, usually posed in a motel room or up against a brick wall in an alley or old building. At least one shot in the set must have her ass in the air pointed toward the camera and her head down on her arms. May be looking back over her shoulder at the camera. Final image has so much photoshop skin smoothing that the model looks like a Barbie doll. Oct 07 07 08:04 pm Link Fine art (artistic) nude - a few people buy it framed and hang on the wall with wire Artistic nude - not good enough to be fine art, but a step up from glamour nude Glamour nude - lots of people will pay to see it, but as looseleaf or stapled to a wall And we love all three. Fine art is the only one you can legally leave up when Grandma comes over for meatloaf night, though. Oct 07 07 08:04 pm Link Butch Lexington wrote: AMEN! Oct 07 07 08:17 pm Link I only know mine aren't "Glamour Nude." Aside from that, I use Artistic Nude and Fine-Art Nude interchangebly, although the term "Art Nude," which I haven't noticed referenced in this thread, is how I refer to my work most of the time... Oct 07 07 08:22 pm Link Iris Dassault wrote: There's a much clearer distinction between Fine art/artistic and glamour than between fine art and artistic. But the reality is that fine art is often thought of as a B&W image. Oct 07 07 10:09 pm Link Glamour pics get masturbated to with Jergens and then you have a beer. Art Nudes get masturbated to with glycerin and then you have a tea. Fine Art Nudes get masturbated to with mineral oils and then you sip an aged chianti. It's all on a sliding scale of pretentiousness.

Oct 07 07 10:25 pm Link Fine Art Nude = Artistic Nude shot by talented photographer. Mediocre Art Nude = Black & White Nude shot by GWC.

Oct 07 07 10:46 pm Link fine art/artistic: special emphasis taken to layer the image in a VERY subtle way with quality detail: top notch lightitng ... texture, model selection, tons of other things .... (fine art should be the capturing of something beautiful .... beauty is NOT easily defined and it's definition elludes us, buuuuuut I think we'd all agree that beauty can be said to have tremendous layers and great detail .... this is what artistic photos should be ... whether you are shooting womens shoes, a wedding or childrens toys ... should all have those basic qualifications met! glamour: usually brighter, bolder lighting (not too many layers/dimension to the image ...what you see is what you get ) ... more emphasis on the person/subject Kinda in your face and straightforward, sometimes arousing a fantasy (nontangible/non-everyday) element , but not always .... Example: Many images of celebrities are often glamour shots .... but likewise many images in Playboy magazine are also glamour photos ... two different genre of audiences, but that same basic elements presented in both set of photos. my two cents -nic Oct 07 07 10:58 pm Link |
