8Natural, unstaged and beautifully unpolished: this is what makes the
photography of Phil Dlab something special. Born in Slovakia and raised
in Canada, Dlab returned to the country of his birth and made its young
men the focus of his photography. His pictures capture the essence of
masculinity at its purest and most authentic. Dlab's models are athletic
but not glamorous, appealing but not pretentious. His photos are full
of sunlight and candor and invite us to see not just beautiful bodies,
but men who are open and fearless enough to show them. This calendar,
which presents a selection of images from Phil Dlab's second photo book,
brings men to life who truly have "Nothing to Hide."
