Take a great escape with Crystal Renn in ‘La Escapada’ by Nico for the July/August 2013 issue of Harper’s Bazaar Spain. Can you think of anything sweeter than a collaboration that combines the artful eye of Nico with the sensual spirit of Renn? Leave it to this prolific photographer to mix the hazy glaze of retro-eclectic color with the scintillating style of bold black/white for an arousing cover-story that plays out like a modern film noir. By taking an ultra tame theme and injecting it with just the right amount of heat he has created a culture of, Neo Pop-Erotica. Approaching the female form like a sculpture, every curve is celebrated every nuance explored. Breathless shots performed like pieces of choreographed perfection, Nico’s brand of beauty is all about bringing the body to life. And with the electric angles of Crystal Renn to follow it’s easy to see the source of his creative inspiration. As the spark is lit we watch Renn succumb to the slow seduction of his lens, allowing herself to fall into every moment with poetic precision. Master and his muse both giving themselves over to the high art of fashion, the chemistry captured in this partnership is one of supreme synchronicity – Bravo.
