About the Book
In 2010 the art theme was 'Gold for Life', so I expanded on images inspired by the body painting of a friend during Burning Man.
What would it look like if beautiful models were posing as 'Golden Statues' in places where artists might display a ... golden statue.
Well, here you see the results. Both the images which then became canvases and the floating exhibition.
(The project also yielded a Video Installation, which you can see at www.vimeo.com/18304672. These are 5,000 images at a speed of 10 images per second)

About the Creator
Tomas Loewy was born in Prague, grew up in Buenos Aires, Munich, New York. Moving to Miami equaled vision, optimism, creativity. Based on his international background in journalism, television, film & online, Tomas found his visual expression, molding images with a love for moments, situations, time lapse, detail and human emotions. Part of this 'just-like-being-there' visual blend comes from the refusal to be content with the comfortable life most people lead. The right combination of stability and lack thereof is a personal choice: at different times draining, provoking, challenging, exhilarating. His visual installations express emotions & impact others by showing facets of life with a like-being-there point of view the viewer would not encounter without seeing these images.
