Deliciously decadent, Ellen von Unwerth’s latest work has all the trappings of a classic, highly stylized tale of lasciviousness and a study in form, sexuality and society – albeit one tucked away behind the velvet curtain of propriety.Titillating yet never prurient, “Revenge” depicts the erotic journeys of three young women who arrive for a respite at a rural manor. Instead, what follows is a series of sexually charged S&M scenes of the women as they become entagled with the Baroness, her chauffer and her stable boy.
For von Unwerth, a fashion photographer whose work graces the pages of Vogue and Vanity Fair, the work represents a honing of her craft of merging desire with setting. When von Unwerth does it well, as she does here, each element is inextricable from the other.
Unexpected and as far from cliché as nearly any artist working today, “Revenge” stands out as a bar that won’t be easy to clear for any who follow in her footsteps.
