在当代艺术中，挑衅性的作品并不是什么新鲜事，但德国摄影师朱尔根·泰勒(Juergen Teller)和中国雕塑家向静(音)拍摄的性感美食照片吸引人的结合，却为性欲的复杂性提供了一个深思熟虑的视角。

起初，这两者是截然相反的。在这里，泰勒以能在路易威登(Louis Vuitton)和塞林(Céline)等豪华广告项目之间穿行，以及他对夏洛特·拉姆普林(夏洛特·拉姆普林(夏洛特·拉姆林)和凯特·莫斯(Kate Moss)等名人更有创意的肖像画)而闻名。他在沙发上展示了一张裸体薇薇安·韦斯特伍德(Vivienne Westwood)的裸体照片，照片上展示了厨师安东尼奥·吉达(Antonio Guida)为标志性的Tuscan II Pellicano

Teller解释说：“如果我拍摄食物或裸体女人，我会同样兴奋，也有同样的感觉。”“我不想用我拍过的女人的照片，因为食物色情更抽象，所以和湘的外国雕塑很好地结合在一起。”

这些图片包括Teller的最爱：“第116号食物”，它展示了一盘渗出饱和颜色和诱人形状的食物。朱尔根的照片并不会把女人物化。这些图片可能是食物，但最终它们都是关于人类的，“北京的翔观察到，她用一系列反映中国女性脆弱性的无毛、无表情的生命形式，剥夺了身体吸引力的所有元素。

还有韦斯特伍德的画像？
“啊，那就像个甜心，”出纳员笑着说。
"她坐在那里，就像女王到处寻找一切。
即使它不应该，它也能发挥作用。"

While Teller's photographs speak of desire and eroticism, Xiang's sculptures are devoid of any expression. The unusual pairing offers a thoughtful perspective on the complexities of sexual desire. Photography: Kitmin Lee. Courtesy of Lehmann Maupin New York and Hong Kong

'I didn't want to use the images of women I've photographed because food porn is more abstract and so combines well with Xiang's foreign sculptures,' says Teller. Photography: Kitmin Lee. Courtesy of Lehmann Maupin New York and Hong Kong

'Juergen's photographs don't objectify women. These images may be of food but in the end they are really all about human beings,' observes Xiang. Photography: Kitmin Lee. Courtesy of Lehmann Maupin New York and Hong Kong

And Vivienne? Ah yes, well that is like a sweetie,' laughs Teller. 'It works somehow even if it shouldn't.' Photography: Kitmin Lee. Courtesy of Lehmann Maupin New York and Hong Kong
