The Opéra

The Opéra reinvents itself - at least a little. After eight successful issues with changing art direction, editor Matthias Straub entrusted design legend Mirko Borsche with the design relaunch of the ninth issue: a refreshingly new approach to images and typography brings The Opéra into the next decade. The tried-and-tested structure and artistic eye in the selection of photographers and images remain the focus in Volume IX: The Opéra embodies contemporary nude photography and stands for unconditional devotion to art and the body. Artists include Shiori Akiba, Kimbra Audrey, Jim de Block, Martina Borsche, Eva Bukareva, Arthur Cadre, Indira Cesarine, Barron Claiborne, Stephane Coutelle, Francois Delebecque, Emmet Green, Samy Husson, David PD Hyde, Arnoldas Kubilius, Anna Lazareva, Joanne Leah, Maud Levavasseur, Lin Zhipeng, Julia Luzina, Mia Macfarlane, Julien Crouigneau, Gerhard Merzeder, Stefan Milev, Veronique Pecheux, Laurence Philomene, Christina Rollny, Maya Ruska, Ryuta Sakurai, Caroline Senecal, Joanna Szproch, Slava Thisset, Sean Patrick Watters, Leafy Yeh, and Ziqian Liu.
