I just discovered a charity auction in favour of the Colombian people – I immediately thought, for once, to break my “vow of chastity” and to publish some images of my works that I make available for the project on my IG account.
Wherever you live you can participate in the auction and make your contribution.
If you are a model, in addition to my prints you can also make your offer to buy a photo session with me; the session, whose theme will be the "Freedom" project ( https://ugosinhache.com/projects/freedom/ ) lasts a full day and takes place on Lake Como (Italy).
To place a bid, comment my latest posts with your bid, which must exceed the previous bid:

The auction ends on Sunday 6 June at 11pm (European Time).
I will contact the winners of my works the following week to arrange the payment and submission details.
You can see other works at auction by following the tag #subastasolidariaxcolombia on IG – for details on how the auction proceeds will be used follow @subastasolidariaxcolombia (yes, again on IG).
Thank you!

Gerade habe ich eine Wohltätigkeitsauktion zu Gunsten des kolumbianischen Volkes entdeckt - ich dachte sofort daran, ausnahmsweise mal mein „Keuschheitsgelübde“ zu brechen und einige Bilder meiner Werke, die ich für das Projekt zur Verfügung stelle, auf meinem IG-Account zu veröffentlichen.
Wo auch immer Sie wohnen, können Sie an der Auktion teilnehmen und Ihren Beitrag leisten.
Wenn Sie ein Model sind, können Sie neben meinen Drucken auch Ihr Angebot machen, eine Fotosession mit mir zu kaufen; die Session, deren Thema das Projekt "Freedom" (https://ugosinhache.com/projects/freedom/) sein wird, dauert einen ganzen Tag und findet am Comer See (Italien) statt.
Um ein Gebot abzugeben, kommentieren Sie meine neuesten Beiträge mit Ihrem Gebot, das das vorherige Gebot übersteigen muss:

Die Auktion endet am Sonntag, 6. Juni, um 23 Uhr (europäische Zeit).
Ich werde die Gewinner meiner Arbeiten in der folgenden Woche kontaktieren, um die Zahlungs- und Einreichungsdetails zu vereinbaren.

Como, Italy
Italy / Europe
After my last shooting at the beginning of March with Sara (some images somewhere in this article) I took this period to go trough many shootings I did since last autumn and prepared some post-production images that I' now publishing on my web site, instagram and, of course, here on STRKNG.
It was a moment to think about what direction to move in the future and so many good things happened; soon I will be represented by a gallery in Milan and I also started to sell some images of my dolls on auction sites.
I'm so happy it is now time to start create some new images.
Via Balla 6, Villafranca Padovana
Italy / Europe
Located in a 1800 villa, in north east Italy, this is the first exhibition of a newly created art association "Associazione Culturale CA'DURA".
You will be able to enjoy several kind of art, pairings, sculpture, ceramic and – of course – some great photography.
Showing a couple of my images, this is the third time this year I'm showing some of my images in an exhibition.
Como
Italy / Europe
My first personal exhibition is dedicated to my home town: Como (Italy).
A serie of 30 images, all squared and mostly in black & white where I show some details of the city thought my romantic and, sometimes, provocative point of view.
The exhibition is taking place at "Il Cortiletto", one of the most frequented cocktails bars in Como.
Villa Merati, Cannaregio 6293a, 30121 Venezia, Italy
Italy / Europe
Hello!
I will exhibit for the first time in Venice during the Biennale and will shoot a live performance while a model will be body-painted by one of the participating artists (about 40 artists from different countries) – we will shoot together a series of images during the performance which will be held simultaneously with the inauguration of the exhibitions.
Palazzo Merati was the residence of Giacomo Casanova, a famous italian "playboy" of the 18th Century.
Hope to see you in Venice!
P.S. I'm looking for models for to shoot the performance that will take place on: August 31st, September 7th and October 5th 2019. If you are interested in participating the performance as a model or if you need more information about the shooting please get in touch as soon as possible through my Instagram (@ugrandolini).
In a world where women alter their bodies trying to become perfect like dolls, I started my journey in photography by shooting with “real” dolls trying to represent them as women.
Later, I began shooting portraits with real women just to realise that they can have an “unexpressed” beauty that is not what fashion magazines propose.
My interest is not limited to a purely aesthetic, objective beauty, I always wonder about what the model is able to communicate through the lens.
The models no longer perform the role of a mere mannequin, they are no longer the soulless bodies portrayed in fashion, instead, they become characters, each interpreting their own story that they let emerge with each shot.
The “fil rouge” of my images is undoubtedly eroticism and I like to make it clear by taking specific areas of the female body, sometimes accentuating imperfections.
Each asymmetry, mole or flaw becomes the detail that gives character to the subject and, instead of diverting the attention away, I rather place it at the center of the observer’s gaze to be contemplated, admired even.
I try to tell a unique story with each image – being that a fragment of an arm, a breast or a look – to conveys the charge and strength that the woman possesses and that I try to make it eternal.
