For GOLDSCHMIEDE ZEITUNG, or The Goldsmith News, Stephan GLATHE photographed a reduced spread with male model Adrien Cardinau, who celebrates the topic of gender fluidity in the area of jewelry.
“It was 55 years ago when the success story of the Jörg Heinz family business began, which revolutionized the world of jewelry with the interchangeable clasp system and put values such as the adaptability and self-determination of women front and center. Now the story continues as you can see in the editorial shoot with model Adrien Cardinaux by photographer Stephan Glathe… Beyond learned conventions, the motifs by Stephan Glathe visualize a new, natural form of masculinity.”
