As Is: Women Exposed
As Is consists of female nudes made in studio se ttings without arti fice or glamour. Amy Gelb’s plain-spoken, yet graceful portraits let the viewer redefi ne the true meaning of beauty. By cropping closely into her subjects, Gelb literalizes the compartmentalization of the female form and recreates the fragmentation of a woman’s identity.

As such, the pictures not only show that she has an eye, but also a heart.”
