Hardcover; 592 pages. This multilingual edition by Dian Hanson combines the best of The New Erotic Photography and The New Erotic Photography 2 into one perfectly-formed collection, presenting the world’s most intriguing erotic photography talents in a single volume. It features 62 photographers from 10 countries and over 350 fresh and provocative images, offering a comprehensive global survey of erotic portraiture and narrative joys.
From rising names to established masters, the book showcases a diverse lineup including Gregory Bojorquez, Jo Schwab, Tomohide Ikeya, Frédéric Fontenoy, Andrew Pashis, and Jan Hronsky, alongside Guido Argentini, Bruno Bisang, Eric Kroll, and the late Bob Carlos Clarke. The edition also highlights outstanding women contributors and subjects—self-portraitist Jody Frost and cover artist April-Lea Hutchinson, plus models such as Kimberly Kane, Natacha Merritt, and Magdalena Wosinska—reflecting a wide spectrum of sensuality and aesthetics.
It all adds up to an impressive, visually rich exploration of how erotic photography has evolved over the last decade—from the shift from film to digital to the continued use of Polaroids, Lomography cameras, and Holga alongside traditional SLRs.
