EMPLOYMENT HISTORY
Time : 1994 to now
Institution : Gallery Torch Amsterdam: Mr. A. van der Have
Post : Professional Photographer / Erotic Art Designer
Job Description :
• Stationed in Amsterdam, for the past 10 years I was commissioned by the Dutch Government to travel the world taking photos for the promotion and the development of Erotic Art in Holland.
• International travel included numerous countries in Europe and Asia, as well as America and Australia. In order to properly observe, truly understand and learn from different cultures, customs and lifestyles in all these different places, I normally reside in the capital or large cities each country for around 3 to 6 months. In the past I have lived in Tokyo, New York, Shanghai and so on. I am now living in Hong Kong, where I plan to remain for the foreseeable future.
• As seen in my Erotic Art work, my costumes, photos, posing and overall, I visualize a romantic balance of East and West, Past and Future, Present and Avant Garde.
• I am responsible for promoting Dutch tourism and enhancing the attraction of Amsterdam through organizing and exhibiting in Erotic Art Exhibitions internationally.
• Since Erotic Art plays a key role in promoting one of the most significant attractions of the tourism industry in Amsterdam (the Red Light District), I hold an average of two Erotic Art Exhibitions in some of the world's most prestigious Art Galleries every year.
• For these exhibitions, I am responsible for conceptualizing, preparing and arranging all the details and materials, collaborating with my Art Manager.
• Preparations for these exhibitions include designing my own erotic costumes (mainly all kinds of female lingerie - please see the attached portfolio), finding fitting and posing models, conceptualizing the themes of exhibitions.
• Exhibitions include demonstration, evaluation and selling of my artwork.
• Each exhibition generates average sales of over USD 10,000 including Artist Proof of my own signature erotic costumes.
• All the artwork is designed, produced and created by myself.
