The strange, bewitching universe that William Ropp conjures up through his lens seems familiar to us, even though we've never seen the objects or people he photographs. It is the beautiful, the erotic and the frightening of this unsettling universe that attracts and intrigues. His work is rich in intoxicating substances: beauty, sex and fear, three of mankind's most potent drugs. Ropp's genius is to bring an unexpected truth to every subject - and this has always been the gift of great art.
