Ken Haak Day


As promised when I posted a photo by Ken Haak in a series on the year 1985 three weeks ago, we get a full set today.  Mr. Haak (1923-1991) was a World War II veteran who became well known fashion photographer after attending art school on the GI Bill.  He only sporadically did male nudes in the 1960s and 70s, but really hit his stride with it in a frenetic burst of energy between 1983 and 1985.  Most of these works feature dusky lighting, but the photo above from a group of pictures he made for After Dark is an exception.  We'll see another from that shoot later today.

  2. A friend of mine has his box set Private Collection which is rather expensive if you can find mint or near mint copies. I have been through it many times and it is quite good.

    1. I saw references to that book when I was researching this series. Yes, pricy.
