Marc Erwin Babej is one of the most popular and richest Photographer who was born on March 30, 1970 in Frankfurt, Germany. Babej only works in black and white. His photography style is heavily influenced by deep focus cinematography from the 1930s and 1940s, such as Jean Renoir and Orson Welles, as well cinematographer Gregg Toland. Mischlinge is explicitly influenced by the aesthetics of Leni Riefenstahl.

Babej adapts the defining characteristics of ancient Egyptian art in Yesterday – Tomorrow. He uses aspective representation (simultaneous representation of the human body from multiple perspectives using two-dimensional media), canon of proportions, and integration of symbols, images, and text.

Babej’s photography-based series focus on conflicting belief systems in history, politics and science. Mask of Perfection (2013) examined the tensions between natural beauty and the “scientific” approach to beauty practiced in plastic surgery.

Mischlinge (2014) focuses on the impact of the Nazi era on definitions of national identity in the Federal Republic of Germany, combining images with genealogical DNA tests of the cast members and writings by himself, historian Thomas Kühne and Cem Özdemir, co-chairman of Alliance ’90/The Greens.

Aspective Realism is the new style of art that resulted. It’s regarded as the “revival of ancient Egyptian art after 2000 years of dormancy.” Elham Salah, head of Egypt’s Museums Sector, said that Aspective Realism “reveals the complex visual language of ancient Egyptian artwork and evolves it into contemporary photorealistic media.”
