	<blockquote>In November-December 1999 I got acquainted through Internet with Alexander Fradis (I was greatly impressed by his exhibition photos), who lived in Munich with his spouse Monica Gisler and his two children. We met each other personally only in 2000. It was at that time that we decided to establish an art project – “Studio-13”. Fradis was poor as a church mouse, and I promised him that I would invest money into this idea. He managed to get financing from other sponsors too. I know that for the first time Alexander visited Odessa in September 1999. After that he visited Ukraine more than once, later on he invited me as well.</blockquote>		<blockquote>In November-December 1999 I got acquainted through Internet with Alexander Fradis (I was greatly impressed by his exhibition photos), who lived in Munich with his spouse Monica Gisler and his two children.

	The partnership between Leuenberger and Fradis ultimately ended in a falling out, with various reasons cited for the split. Leuenberger had grown increasingly uncomfortable with Fradis' treatment of the models and his personal behavior, including allegations that Fradis allowed the girls to smoke, failed to maintain a clean environment, and engaged in drug abuse. Leuenberger also claimed that Fradis had offered to sleep with some of the models, which contributed to the end of their professional relationship.

Leuenberger also claimed that Fradis had offered to sleep with some of the models, which contributed to the end of their professional relationship.

	The split led to a significant change in their operations. In March 2001, Fradis took a group of loyal models, including the Gladcova sisters and their mothers, to start new ventures, such as Astral Nymphets, and briefly gained control of the Eternal Nymphets website. Leuenberger attempted to report Fradis to the police, but the outcome is unclear. Leuenberger eventually regained control of Eternal Nymphets and continued to run the site, along with another, until they were seized by police in February 2002 for containing child pornography.

	After the seizure, Leuenberger relaunched Eternal Nymphets, shifting his focus to non-nude photography to avoid further legal issues. He updated the site with new photos of his models until 2004 and then repurposed it to feature content from the dormant Swiss Arts models websites. The site finally ceased operations in 2007, along with the other Swiss Arts websites.

	Fradis and Leuenberger's operations began unraveling after the [[Wikipedia:Ministry_of_Internal_Affairs_(Ukraine)\|Ministry of Internal Affairs]] received information about the transportation of girls across the border from Moldova. An operating group was set up, with the assistance of frontier guards. During an operation on the Chisinau-Odessa train, authorities identified two women who had frequently accompanied groups of young girls. When crossing the border, these women presented fake powers of attorney, allegedly from the girls' parents. The women, along with five girls aged 9 to 14, were detained and questioned. Initially, the women claimed they were taking the children on a visit at the request of their parents. However, the girls revealed that they had been paid $25-50 by two foreigners, Alexander and Daniel, to participate in certain activities. The identities of the two women were confirmed as Ulya, a 36-year-old from Moldova, and Dasha, a 32-year-old from Pridnestrovje.<ref name="i-scoop_org" />		Fradis and Leuenberger's operations began unraveling after the [[Wikipedia:Ministry_of_Internal_Affairs_(Ukraine)\|Ministry of Internal Affairs]] received information about the transportation of girls across the border from Moldova.

			The circumstances surrounding the fate of these two women are unclear. Nevertheless, it appears that both Fradis and Leuenberger managed to avoid any legal consequences.

	Daniel Leuenberger first took notice of Alexander Fradis when the latter had an exhibition in Germany, where Fradis had already gained a degree of notoriety for his artistic photographs of young teenage girls, which he had been producing between 1996 and 2001. During this period, Fradis had showcased his work in several exhibitions, including those in Munich (1997-1998), Moscow (1998), Chisinau (1997), and Odessa.~~<ref name=~~"~~i-scoop_org~~"~~>[https~~://web.archive.org/web/20150820030401/http://i-scoop.org/fileadmin/download_files/child_pornography_english.pdf i-scoop.org - Juvenile Porn Stars Agency Set Up in Odessa by Representative of International Organization and Foreign Partner]</ref>		Daniel Leuenberger first took notice of Alexander Fradis when the latter had an exhibition in Germany, where Fradis had already gained a degree of notoriety for his artistic photographs of young teenage girls, which he had been producing between 1996 and 2001.

Slovo, a Ukrainian newspaper based in Odessa, commented on Fradis' photo exhibition, titled "White Angels", stating:

			<blockquote>The photo exhibition, opened in the World Club of Odessa Residents (7, Marazliyivska str.), is dedicated to the spiritual world of an adolescent. Young models of the photoamateur Alexander Fradis, present at the ‘White angels” opening, confirmed that the author had seen in them much of that, which usually escapes the traditionally indifferent look of the adults.<ref name="i-scoop_org">[https://web.archive.org/web/20150820030401/http://i-scoop.org/fileadmin/download_files/child_pornography_english.pdf i-scoop.org - Juvenile Porn Stars Agency Set Up in Odessa by Representative of International Organization and Foreign Partner]</ref></blockquote>

	The existence of child pornography, particularly on the internet, has a harmful effect on those who want to openly discuss the topic of child eroticism and showcase professional works of art related to the subject. There are many examples of artists who have explored this theme in their work, including Lewis Carroll, Dorotea Tanning, Baltus, David Hamilton, Jock Sturges, Ron Oliver, Graham Ovenden, Jan Saudek, and Aura Cepulinskeite, among others.<ref name="i-scoop_org" /></blockquote>		The existence of child pornography, particularly on the internet, has a harmful effect on those who want to openly discuss the topic of child eroticism and showcase professional works of art related to the subject.
