The declaration that a work of art is "about sex" is often
announced to the public as a scandal after which there is nothing
else to say about the work or the artist-controversy concludes a
conversation when instead it should begin a new one.
Moving beyond debates about pornography and censorship, Jennifer
Doyle shows us that sex in art is as diverse as sex in everyday
life: exciting, ordinary, emotional, traumatic, embarrassing,
funny, even profoundly boring. "Sex Objects" examines the reception
and frequent misunderstanding of highly sexualized images, words,
and performances. In chapters on the "boring parts" of "Moby-Dick,"
the scandals that dogged the painter Thomas Eakins, the role of
women in Andy Warhol's Factory films, "bad sex" and Tracey Emin's
crudely evocative line drawings, and L.A. artist Vaginal Davis's
pornographic parodies of Vanessa Beecroft's performances, "Sex
Objects" challenges simplistic readings of sexualized art and
instead investigates what such works can tell us about the nature
of desire.
In "Sex Objects, "Doyle offers a creative and original exploration
of how and where art and sex connect, arguing that to proclaim a
piece of art "about sex" reveals surprisingly little about the
work, the artist, or the spectator. Deftly interweaving anecdotal
and personal writing with critical, feminist, and queer theory, she
reimagines the relationship between sex and art in order to better
understand how the two meet-and why it matters.
Jennifer Doyle is associate professor of English at the University
of California, Riverside. She is coeditor, with Jonathan Flatley
and Jose Esteban Munoz, of "Pop Out: Queer Warhol."
David Vance is first an artist, a person who expresses himself
through a medium - and David Vance's medium is the camera. In
"Emotion - Photographs by David Vance" the critically acclaimed
photographer shares his particular vision of emotions with us. "As
a beauty addict, I am compelled photographing beautiful subjects.
When I see something that is beautiful, I want to show it to the
world the way I have experienced it," says Vance. Influenced by the
great movie star portraits of George Hurrell and the great fashion
photographers of the 1950s, Richard Avedon and Irving Penn, Vance
creates an image world of its own: beautiful, sensual, and
emotional.
Text in English & German. Of course, my photography is a
"turn-on", a sort of Viagra, because, lets face it, it is extremely
exciting for a man to view young girls in provocative poses. The
aspects of forbidden love, past memories, ones first love, all this
and related fantasies are triggered by these very young girls, who
attract them like a magnet. Suspend your judgement of them while
looking, because in each of them there is an unbridled, hidden
sexual desire. Ordinary photographs can make extraordinary,
sensational impressions. While revelling in the land of the
forbidden, I wish the photos inspire you to have beautiful
fantasies.
Tattoo photography pioneer Justice Howard documents the American
tattoo community with her highly iconic images. Howard effortlessly
captures the essence of her subjects' triumphs, as well as their
frailties. Her images enhance both the male and female physical
forms, highlighting their strengths and prowess, and expose hidden
elements of the human condition in all its kaleidoscopic beauty.
Gracing the pages of this graphic dossier are fifty-two models,
including Malice, Xanthia Pink, Dejah Garcia, Christine Fury, Mia
Tyler, and Amelia Nightmare. Tattoo artist luminaries, such as Mark
Mahoney, Freddy Negrete, Rick Walters, Kari Barba, and Robert
Atkinson also make appearances, as well as rock gods Evan Seinfeld
and Dave Navarro, Sons of Anarchy actor Rusty Coones, Black Veil
Brides, Diego Verduzco, and UFC champion Kimo Leopoldo. In front of
Justice's lens, these figures appear quite capable of escaping from
the pages and conquering the world by storm.
The great pin-up illustrators of the '30s through the '60s have
inspired a whole new generation of digital photographers. Replacing
the artist's palette with myriad photo editing tools, the modern
photographer has kept the pin-up tradition alive. This book is a
visual delight with more than 300 photos from 25 photographers
nationwide. The vintage images from cheesecake pin-up to Hollywood
glamour will surely take you back in time, as will classic military
nose art and authentic WWII bomber jackets. The pin-up models were
photographed in the most scenic locations in the United States.
