Motel Fetish - Reviews
"Le plus grand photographe érotique, Chas Ray Krider, n`avait pas encore édité de livre. Les éditions TASCHEN rectifient le tir et publient Motel Fetish. Une paire de fesses en l`air, des jambes aux bas nylon shootées dans un motel, pour saliver comme dans un film noir."JalouseFrance |

The images of Motel Fetish are not ordinary erotica. They are infused with a subtlety and depth that sets them apart from other similar work; they are provocative and unsettling at once.
The women are untouchable, adorned in the sexual iconography of the silver screen and gazing sidewise with expressions of effete nonchalance, yet they are also expectant, dragging on a cigarette, bent into uncomfortable positions as if displaying themselves to an off-camera eye, the second occupant of the hotel room that many of the pictures gingerly hint at. The series calls into question the oft-bandied notion of women as sexual objects with a quiet but sustained challenge: just who is in control here? Turning convention on its head, the dress and manner that has been traditionally associated with female submission assumes the guise of power and authority, with a force of suggestion that makes one wonder if it had not always been this way. Chas Ray Krider is one of the most potent and vivid erotica photographers of our time, and this first book promises to be the start of a lasting and complicated chapter in the history of the art.
