Yigal Ozeri at Mike Weiss
and
Juergen Teller at Lehmann Maupin

Ozeri, featured on the cover of Gallery Guide this month, reflects perfectly realist oil paintings of nude girls. Teller's photographs are candid-looking photos of nude girls that may as well be carbon copies of Ozeri's girls. Why are galleries featuring identical naked ladies? And why didn't Ozeri just take some candid pics and make c-prints?
