Sobre este artículo
Taschen, 2008 STUNNING AND UNIQUE!!! ILUSTRATED WITH ASTONISHING PHOTOGRAPHS that are barely credible, in both scope and number, of the true swinger scene in America. The secret life of America's Bible Belt is revealed in all its wonderful variety! America, but not as we know it. And certainly as we have never seen it. Naomi Harris's subjects are not the usual perfected androids who populate contemporary erotica, but ordinary people with extraordinary sex lives; this book explores a rarely-seen side of sex in America. This edition is STRICTLY limited to 1,000 numbered copies, signed by both Naomi Harris and Richard Prince. The cover features a four-color, silk screened, 3-dimensional stamped metal reproduction of a classic American motel sign, specially conceived and created for this edition. Richard Prince discovered Naomi Harris in TASCHEN's The New Erotic Photography and was so intrigued by her photos of American swingers that he tracked down the 34-year-old New Yorker, determined to make her his protégé. When he discovered TASCHEN had signed her to do America Swings he asked to do an interview with her, where he reveals part of what makes her work so unique: "When I look at one of your swinger photos what I'm looking at is mostly you 'outside' the picture looking at what you're photographing half-naked, all naked, taking these photos of next-door neighbors having sex," and he might have added both indoors and out. He refers to Harris's secret for winning the confidence of her subjects: To penetrate the world of middle class mate-swapping she had to join them, often working in just shoes and a tool belt to hold her camera gear. Her extreme technique worked so well that in 48 months she was able to photograph 38 parties, crisscrossing the country from Mahwah, New Jersey, to Pleasanton, California; from Big Lake, Minnesota, to Washington, Texas. Her subjects are not the usual perfected androids who populate contemporary erotica, but ordinary people with extraordinary sex lives, including multi-orgasmic schoolteachers, polyamorous nurses, bi-sexual senior citizens and the Mandingos, a group of African-American men who service white wives. SIGNED and LIMITED. This copy is number 119 of only 1000, and it is a huge book, inside an elaborate and very beautiful stars and stripes box. Taschen is famous for its design, and attention to detail, and this is a very exceptional book even for them. The specially commissioned cast metal motel sign on the cover is worth the price! This vast book weighs 10 kilos in its original double packaging box. Extra charges for postage will be necessary, and well worth it. PLEASE NOT: THIS IS EXCEPTIONALLY HEAVY AND OUTSIZED. I HAVE TO CHARGE POSTAGE ON THIS BOOK Language: eng Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng. Signed by Author. Limited Edition.. Hardcover. New.
