Page [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]

“It’s a wet dream come true. You open a 608 page book, filled with the best erotic work of 82 photographers from 14 different countries: Terry Richardson, Ralph Gibson, Jan Saudek, Bob Carlos Clarke and plenty more. It’s also chance to see the younger, fresher wave of photographers emerging and how they’re redefining the art of eroticism. Out now.” 10 Magazine, London United Kingdom

“Stop being reactionary and embrace al that posh porn has to offer with TASCHEN’s The New Erotic Photography. It’s a characteristically comprehensive and immaculately edited collection of work from the creatives who’ve carved out art-porn as a niche in its own right. And at an immodest 608 pages, it’s a veritable library of contemporary titillation, one of those prestigious tomes that certainly won’t remain on the bookshelf just for show.” Arena, London United Kingdom

"Que se passe-t-il lorsqu`une éditrice de revues pour adultes et un photojournaliste connu pour ses clichés fétichistes se rencontrent? Ils collectent le travail de 82 photographes dont Ralph Gibson, Jan Saudek, Terry Richardson, Natacha Merritt, Petter Hegre, Richard Kern, Bob Carlos Clarke, Thomas Karsten, Terry Richardson, Marc Baptiste, etc. et en font un livre sur les nouveaux talents de la photographie érotique contemporaine. En 608 pages, l`ouvrage propose une tonalité et un traitement nouveaux pour aborder un sujet qui, somme toute, est toujours un peu tabou. Petit plus du livre, les confessions des artistes qui racontent leur inspiration, leurs déboires et leur rencontre avec leurs sujets. L`érotisme est redéfini." Type, Lausanne Switzerland

"TASCHEN`s The New Erotic Photography is both sexy and useful: it features the work of 82 photographers from Terry Richardson to Eric Kroll and Richard Kern, as well as expert advice on turning sexy pictures into profit." Style.com, New York United States

"Co-curators Dian Hanson and Eric Kroll (himself no slouch when it comes to producing sexy nudes of his own) collects the best work of 82 photographers from around the world. . .Clocking in at over 600 pages, the book looks to be a welcome addition to the Fleshbot Central library of fine art babery and we`re fairly frothing at the mouth in anticipation of our own copy. . ." Fleshbot.com, New York United States

Just read that Penthouse review... You can call it art all you want but it isn't. Maybe that's why these editors disgraced those Master Photographers inside, so they could claim there was art here. But, someone who used to work for Leggs and Juggs deciding upon taste factor really kind of sets the tone of the book to begin with. I don't know why I should be so upset about those photographers being so pimped like this ... but seeing how most of them are dead and cannot speak for themselves anymore... I thought I'd speak up. Collin James United States

I got a peek at this book the other day. I was horrified to see the likes of Ralph Gibson, Bob Carlos Clarke, Jan Saudek and a few other photographers that should be glorified, thrown in with some of the perv, no class, factor that some of these images envelop. The cover is adorable, but putting these GREATS in with some of this mess is disturbing! Collin James United States

"Continua la crociata di Benedikt Taschen a favore di « un erotismo sano e gioioso ». E se ogni tanto si sconfina nella pornografia, lui non si preoccupa. Il sogno segreto del raffinato editore tedesco è girare "il pornofilm definitivo", quello che mischierà corpo e intelletto, carne e cervello, arte e istinto. Nell'attesa TASCHEN pubblica vere e proprie enciclopedie dei sensi. L'ultima si intitola The new erotic photography ed è una babele fotografica dei clic provocanti. " Ci sono tanti fotografi di paesi emergenti, orientali o dell' Europa dell'Est, ma purtroppo niente Africa" lamenta Dian Hanson, direttrice del settore erotismo della TASCHEN e curatrice del volume insieme a Eric Kroll, fotografo americano amante del fetish. Dopo una capillare ricerca (sopratutto su internet) sono stati selezionati 120 fotografi ridotti poi a 84 dall'accetta di Benedikt. Bianco e nero, colore, digitale, ritratti posati e scatti rubati: nel libro ce n'è per ogni gusto. Qualche nome noto (Ralph Gibson, Jan Saudek, Terry Richardson, Natacha Merritt, Richard Kern, Bob Carlos Clarke), ma moltissime scoperte, assemblate in ordine alfabetico. Le 608 pagine diventano una specie di luna park dell'erotismo. Tra gli italiani: il già noto Guido Argentini e gli esordienti, almeno per quanto riguarda l'editoria erotica, Nicola Rinaldi e Giambattista Sambuelli, che finora hanno esposto in gallerie o direttamente su internet." Panorama, Roma Italy

"Bajo el sello de la conocida editorial TASCHEN nos llega todo un deleite para la vista. La nueva fotografía erótica. A lo largo de 600 páginas desfilan las mejores imágenes de 90 fotógrafos que se han dedicado a retratar a mujeres y hombres en las situaciones más sensuales. (www.taschen.com)." Elle, Madrid Spain

"Kink up your coffee table with this 608-page fleshfest shot by the likes of top photographers Terry Richardson and Marc Baptiste. It`s the kind of high-end erotica your girlfriend would probably approve of, so there`s no need to keep it stowed in the closet with your embarrassing porn collection." Maxim, New York United States
