Описание: You are invited to enter the fantasy world of a "forbidden art," erotica, and to explore its many wonders. Over 500 color photographs of erotic artworks and artifacts are shown here, and most of them have not been published or exhibited previously. As you turn the pages, unforgettable images of love, passion, and sensuality unfold. Feast your eyes and mind upon sexual delights as you traipse randomly, back and forth, through many centuries, countries, cultures, artists, and mediums. The originality and imagination of the artists may expand, ignite, and incite your thoughts and senses. The author is a serious collector of art works and erotica, living in Florida.

Описание: Vivid colour photographs depicting the diverse cultures of sub-Saharan Africa In a convergence of brilliant colour and compelling visual narrative, this deeply insightful collection of photographs by Pascal Maitre reveals an Africa unfamiliar to most Westerners, full of startling beauty and fierce contradictions: a young Tutsi girl nurtures a Hutu baby in the dwindling red light of late afternoon; a metal rosary dangles from the chest of a warrior in a Bassorian initiation ceremony; Tuareq soldiers simultaneously juggle goats and machine guns in the hot sand of the Niger desert. Rich in detail and elegant composition, Pascal Maitre's photographs immerse us in a world beyond the familiar media depictions.
