Dan Cermak: ‘I’ve Always Wanted To Do This’
Swiss photographer Dan Cermak has just released a new photography book titled ‘I’ve always wanted to do this’, in which he’s photographed ordinary people, nude and in their own homes with their own belongings.

Dan Cermak: ‘I’ve Always Wanted To Do This’
When I started the project in 2009 I wondered why would people answer to an ad in the paper asking to be photographed naked at home. Is it narcissism or do the models just want to experience something extreme? So I started to ask my models and the answer to that very often was: “I’ve always wanted to do this”, so that’s why this is the title of my book.

Dan Cermak: ‘I’ve Always Wanted To Do This’
In my new work I am trying to show a part of nudity that is intelligent, ironic, also sexy (sometimes), real, human, funny etc. It means trying to give nudity a face beyond common pictures of big breasted women and muscley men.

حاكموا الموديلز العراة الذين عملوا في كلية الفنون الجميلة حتي أوائل السبعينات و اخفوا كتب الفن و كسروا التماثيل العارية الأثرية, ثم اخلعوا ملابسكم و انظروا إلي أنفسكم في المرآة و احرقوا أجسادكم التي تحتقروها لتتخلصوا من عقدكم الجنسية إلي
الأبد قبل أن توجهوا لي إهاناتكم العنصرية أو تنكروا حريتي في التعبير
Put on trial the artists’ models who posed nude for art schools until the early 70s, hide the art books and destroy the nude statues of antiquity, then undress and stand before a mirror and burn your bodies that you despise to forever rid yourselves of your sexual hangups before you direct your humiliation and chauvinism and dare to try to deny me my freedom of expressionمذكرات ثائرة Aliaa Magda Elmahdy
