Ruslan Lobanov

Ruslan Lobanov is one of the most influential photographers in Eastern Europe. Early on, he specialised in portraiture and female nudes in black and white.
He draws his inspiration from cinema and fashion, producing erotic shots in which the bodies of sensual women are brazenly flaunted under his sharp eye. The models thus represent a certain kind of feminine freedom by disrupting established codes. His images have earned the photographer remarkable collaborations, notably with the magazines Playboy and L’Officiel and the cosmetics group L’Oréal. Ruslan Lobanov does not just take photographs for advertising campaigns and also produces limited editions of his personal work in the form of books and calendars. “Works”, released in 2014, brings together his best productions from the past ten years. “Nudes in the City” published in 2015, brought together female subjects from Havana to Moscow. “Not black and white cinema” (2016) is the last limited edition book in color.
