I didn't have a clue how to behave, I was terrified, but she knew what to do and in no time we were naked, in bed.
She was kissing my mouth. My neck. My chest, my stomach, my....! She stopped.
My God! she said, incredulous. Your cock tastes just like CHOCOLATE!

UNTIL THE WORLD NO LONGER EXISTS
Mala noche 1991-1997 »
"What we see is not made up of what we are seeing but rather from what we are. "
Fernando Pessoa
The night, the sex, the wandering… and the need to photograph it all, not so much the perceived act but more like a simple exposure to common and even extreme experiences… It is an inseparable part of photographic practice, in a certain sense, to grasp at existence or risk, desire, the unconsciousness and chance, all of which continue to be essential elements.
Insomnia 1998-2003 »Beyond the subject, the lost souls and the nocturnal drifting, the scenes of fellatio and of bodies in utter abandon, I seek to reveal some kind of break up through the mixture of bodies and feelings, to reveal fragments of society that escape from any analysis and instant visualization of the event, but nonetheless, are its principal elements.
Vortex 1988-2003, Autoportraits »The only photographs that truly exist are the " innocent " images. We find them in the family photo albums or in the police archives. Beyond serving as a simple documentation of reality or of a certain aesthetic sense, they attest to the role of the photographer, of his implication, of the authenticity of his position in that moment. The compositions of light, narrative, are no longer, for me, fundamental problems but superfluous lies.
Antoine d'Agata, 2004

auto erotica
Scientists have discovered an orchid that never needs to get a date—it can fertilize itself by performing a sexual act never before seen in flowers.
The hermaphroditic orchid shuns the sexual practices of other flowers and completes the deed without the help of sticky liquids, birds or even a breath of wind.
The orchid, Holcoglossum amesianum, performs a tricky, 360-degree, gravity-defying dance to pollinate itself.
While most flowers spread their pollen to other plants, the new orchid is extremely exclusive and only mates with itself

softbodies extra
softbodies-extra grew out of the earlier series softbodies, based on the idea of physical and biological presence of life concentrating on defining shapes that convey the general idea of cell, organ and body....The whole series has then evolved from the pure concept to a more complex and sensual comprehension of body.
softbodies-extra gains in detail, depth and in density. They became more and more sensual, more delicate too.....They demand a focused and concentrated state of mind that is connected to one's own desires and sensations, to personal sexuality and vulnerability. Each drawing is part of one long path balancing between sensuous feelings, fears and the courage to be consciousl exposed.

Ukiyo-e *
Ukiyo-e*, 1995, 8 min, based on the original 6-channel installation by André Werner, consists of many layers.
Calligraphic details of oriental woodcuts put the naked bodies of a japanese, pornographic movie behind bars. Thus protecting them from the hungry glance of the viewer who get lost in a sea of flesh and red.

The Grammar of Photography Thomas Ruff
VENICE, ITALY.-The Bevilacqua La Masa Foundation is pleased to announce the first retrospective exhibition in Italy dedicated to the German photographer Thomas Ruff.
The exhibition consists of a selection of 120 photos which trace an almost complete path of his work, from the middle eighties up to now. A true “grammar” of photograph through which, chapter by chapter, Ruff exercises himself in linguistic experimentations, thus trying to re-interpret the photographic code: The show runs through October 15, Galleria di Piazza San Marco and Palazzetto Tito , Venice.

on air Atta Kim
The Sex Series, 1 Hour, 2003
In the “On-Air” project, Atta Kim uses extremely long exposures—sometimes lasting as long as twenty-four hours—to create images that explore fundamental questions of time and perception, presence and absence. Creating highly unusual images of such varied subjects as erotic coupling, the landscape along the Korean Demilitarized Zone, and the seemingly deserted midday precincts of Times Square, he suggests that it is possible for us to imagine duration in ways that are radically different from our everyday experience.
The “On-Air” project grew directly out of Atta Kim’s best-known body of work, “The Museum Project” (1995–2002). The photographs in “The Museum Project” present what the artist calls “contemporary treasures”: a variety of individuals and groups who are posed formally inside Plexiglas boxes as if in a museum display.

Nudity Ivan Chabanaud
L'invitation à explorer la combinaison d'images multiples au travers d'une référence dont la pertinence reste entière, la Venus de Milo, corps inachevé comme les esclaves de Michel Ange, engendre une fixité chère à l'immanence Deleuzienne. Nu dont la plastique rend dérisoire les tentations du monde médiatique à assouvir notre désir escamoté. Ces multiples combinaisons me font penser à l'œuvre d'Arman qui lui aussi a expérimenté la manipulation de la Venus dans l'accumulation. Si la pornographie a gagnée le combat du regard puisqu'elle a envahi notre quotidien, ce n'est pas seulement sur le mode rétinien, mais encore plus profondément dans le détournement de sens libérant l'icône de toute responsabilité. L'idée étant d'explorer cette praxis dans l'enchaînement numérique. D'où l'on peut déduire qu'il n'y a pas d'images fixes, les combinaisons sont multiples, le procédé graphique. Ivan Chabanaud

art nudes
Michael Barnes is a master of black and white photography with a great portfolio of classic nudes.
He is also the mastermind and curator behind art nudes, a blog dedicated to fine art nude photography. To label art nudes a blog is a harsh understatement. Over the years Michael and his engaged contributors have made art nudes the quintessential compendium for nude photography on the net. As a long time visitor I am fluffily flattered to find myself among the friends of art nudes. That I am for sure (merci)
Here just one gem from the treasure box:

Imagos
Papilo Rumanzovia (Country of Origin Malaysia)
Actias Luna (Country of Origin USA)
Papilo Rumanzovia (Country of Origin Malaysia)
"Imagos" by Erika Harrsch is a series of imaginary hybrids constructed of enlarged photographs of various species of real butterflies, in whose abdomens are placed images of female genitals (which are of the same geographic origin as the represented butterflies). The artist juxtaposes women and butterflies as being objects of desire, raising questions regarding the representation of the female body, sexuality and identity. Ms. Harrsch believes that a woman's search for her own desire as well as being desired is essential to the construction of her identity and the development of personality and psyche. In ancient Greek, "Psyche" meant butterfly as well as soul and mind - this body of work, no doubt, captures all three.
In many cases, the photographed women have suffered from sexual abuse, violence and humiliation - resulting in experiencing their vagina as a constant source of physical and mental pain. Consequently, the women's genitals created their own wounded identity. In this project, the artist has successfully reconstructed their identity and provided these women a new "self-portrait" - one that is a source of healing, pride and a positive, beautiful perception of themselves.
Kimiko Yoshida
Subtle, fictional, paradoxical, Kimiko Yoshida’s Bachelor Brides form an ensemble of quasi-monochromatic self-portraits, fragments of an intimate web, elaborating on a singular story: the feminine condition in Japan. Her images are large format, luminous squares, underlining her fantasy-bio epic. While still very young, Kimiko Yoshida was struck by the story of her own mother, who met her husband for the fjrst time on her wedding day.
For two years now Kimiko Yoshida has been concentrating on this series of “intangible self-portraits” which can be read as a quest for the hybridization of cultures, for the transformation of the being, and perhaps even as a deletion of identities. The metamorphosis of her own identity into a multiplicity of identifcations expresses the fading of uniqueness, the “deconstruction” of the self.
Kimiko Yoshida never uses direct light, but always searches for that particular light which enters Japanese houses. Shot with a Hasselblad camera with a 120 mm lens, her ‘brides’ inhabit a hybrid, multicultural world formed by layers of time and space.
