The New Erotic Photography - Reviews

Page [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
"En TASCHEN no solo publican excelentes tomos sobre pintura, arquitectura y decoración. También han recopilado erotismo fotográfico (aunque el tomo sobre Cine Erótico tenía su miga) con lujosos volúmenes dedicados a Ricard Kern, Jan Saudek, Araki, Roy Stuart o Natacha Merrit. En breve encontraremos en las librerías dos nuevos tomos: The big book of breasts (el gran libro de las tetas en cristiano), canalla y muy recomendable y este The new erotic photography de corte más artístico y generacional. Libros que sólo pueden leerse con dos manos (por si pensaba hacerloo con una) ya que estamos ante un tomo de más de seiscientas páginas con fotografías y entrevistas a más de ochenta fotógrafos y artistas."

"…the ultimate collection of contemporary erotic photography."
British Journal of Photography, London

"When you call it art, you can keep really hot photos right there on the coffee table. No one pulls this trick off like TASCHEN, the art-book publisher that made smut a cultural celebration. This new collection features the sexiest nudes you`re likely to see outside the pages of Penthouse, including work by Steve Diet Goedde, Natasha Merritt, Craig Morey, Dave Naz, and many others—and was compiled by acclaimed adult editor Dian Hanson and fetish photographer Eric Kroll. The international cast of visionaries captures the allure of women doing everything from eating ice cream or licking their own nipples to lounging languidly for a smoke or simply showing off a sumptuous behind; the book includes quotations from the photos articulating their inspiration."

This is a gorgeous exploration of erotic art photography, a genre which is proving ever more popular but still receives little industry attention compared to the more traditional genre of art nudes. The New Erotic Photography is a razor-sharp anthology that includes the work of both well known masters and a generous litany of new talent including the likes of Dave Naz, Bob Coulter, Cristian Crisbasan, Dider, Carre, and numerous others. Masters represented include Craig Morey, Jan Saudek, Bob Carlos Clarke, Eric Kroll, and Ralph Gibson, to name just a few. Overall there are an astounding 82 photographers represented.

The editors of this book are the renown Eric Krill and Dian Hanson. They are most astute in their picks and a deliciously wide array of themes is presented - ranging from the festive, eros-infused nudes of Andrew Einhorn to the brilliant group sex scenes of Ludovic Goubet. The inclusion of more abstract erotica, such as the works of Japanese photo-artists Maki Miyashita and Yasuji Watanabe escalate this collection to the threshold of brilliance.

Undoubtedly there are many other artists that should have been included in such a noteworthy publication (hopefully we'll see a 2nd volume in the future) but the stunning collection presented is indeed a fine representation of erotic photography that fans and collectors will surely love.

Cant say I liked this as much as I thought I would. I was expecting erotic and felt like it was more in the pornographic region. Nothing wrong with porn for those who like it, but there is a difference between true erotic and harder porn. Nice quality printing with the book though.

These guys from "les Inrockuptibles" (Paris) don't have a single clue about what means art photography. Great works of Jan Saudek, Vlastimil Kula and Alla Esipovich "between post-soviet depression and low-budget porn"? Give me a break, will you! Write about things that you know, guys. And what you don't know, you must learn! Back to school!

"Terry Richardson, Ralph Gibson, Jan Saudek, Peter Kelting, Richard Kern, Natacha Merritt et bien d`autres sont rassemblés dans un nouveau volume concocté par les éditions TASCHEN, The New Erotic Photography. Sur 600 pages, 80 parmi les photographes les plus provocateurs du moment, issus de 14 pays différents, livrent non seulement leurs photos érotiques mais aussi leurs anecdotes, leurs motivations, leurs inspirations et même leurs déboires."

"Suivant un savoir-faire éprouvé (Art at the Turn of the Millenium…), les éditions TASCHEN lancent aujourd`hui un pavé dédié à la nouvelle photographie érotique. Pas toujours si nouvelle d`ailleurs car on y trouve des talents aussi confirmés que Ralph Gibson ou Richard Kern. Mais l`intérêt de l`ouvrage est de proposer un vaste tour du monde de l`érotisme (du moins des parties du monde où l`on a le loisir de sa consacrer à ce problème léger). A feuilleter les portfolios, on constate des positions esthétiques géographiquement marquées. La France, l`Angleterre ou l`Italie demeurent sous la domination des grands maîtres: Helmut Newton ou Guy Bourdin. La Californie perpétue une esthétique de films porno siliconés. La Russie et l`Europe de l`Est évoluent entre dépression postsoviétique et porno low-budget. Quant au Japon, l`influence d`Araki (bondage et petites culottes) est prépondérante. Une possible redéfinition des canons du genre semble poindre sur un axe New York/Stuttgart. S`y révèlent les rejetons somme toute pas si incongrus de David LaChapelle et le formidable Peter Franck."

"600 pages de filles sublimes, pas moins! Dans New Erotic Photography, nouveau livre édité par TASCHEN, sont rassemblés les clichés les plus surprenants et novateurs de la planète éros. Un véritable pavé dans la mare. Guide par l`Américain Eric Kroll, Playboy a feuilleté l`ouvrage en avant-première.... Iconoclaste, obsessionnel, transgressif, Eric Kroll ne recule devant aucun interdit. Il ose détourner le matériel médical à des fins érotiques. Il ose faire poser ses modèles en tenue de nonne. Et il ose maintenant réunir plus de 80 photographes, venus de 14 pays, dans un livre au titre retentissant: The New Erotic Photography. Provocants, espiègles et résolument sexy, les clichés sont accompagnés des commentaires des photographes qui racontent leurs inspirations, leurs déboires et leurs succès à photographier les plus belles femmes. Partez à la rencontre de Ralph Gibson, Jan Saudek, Terry Richardson, Natacha Merritt, Petter Hegre, Richard Kern, Yasuji Watanabe et les nombreux nouveaux talents qui redéfinissent constamment la photo érotique d`aujourd`hui. Adieu pin-up sur les plages érotiques. Au panier les siliconées. Les nouveaux photographes se veulent plus proches du réel. Des fantasmes aussi…Leurs clichés, parfois surréalistes, témoignent de la révolution des mœurs: il est maintenant permis d`aimer les filles en dessous de latex, qui lèchent des cornets de glace ou qui font le ménage à quatre pattes…"
