Sinossi
Beyond voyeurism: Exploring the female body, attitudes, instincts, and dreams
"Stuart’s style and candor make voyeurism as respectable as you’d ever want it to be. You could leave this book out on your desk, but you probably wouldn’t get any work done."
- PLAYBOY, New York
In the 20th century, when pornography made its debut in the film world with its aura of improvisation and amateurishness, it had a caustic challenging quality, a freshness and a natural authenticity. By becoming industrialized and codified, it then let itself be confined in the twofold ghetto of distribution and its related rituals, churning out a pantomime of crude, unexciting, formatted images. Eroticism has always had "better press," especially since it has often been "involved" with literature and great authors have laid sacrifices on its altar. However, limited by censorship, above all self-censorship, to a restrictive representation of sex, it sentenced itself to insipidness and self-mutilation, believing it could find a way out in vain, repetitive sophistication, paradoxically proving, much to the satisfaction of moralists, that since monotony is always born out of uniformity, prefabricated pornography and eroticism have become, and remain boring.
This realization inspires a photographer like Roy Stuart. Taking advantage of Western society’s relative freedom, he has investigated the use that can be made of this dilemma. A photographer and filmmaker, switching from printed to moving image, he seeks to liberate the image from its final taboos, to escape the conventional representation of sex. But, more than anything else, he has an artistic project: beyond voyeurism, he strives to explore the female body, attitudes, instincts, and dreams.
In his new book, the fifth to date, he hones this exploration into something more forthright, close to film. The photos "tell" short stories, like short films, and the models become actors, their movements caught in freeze frame studies, between portrait and narrative. Sex is more explicit, while retaining some of the mystery characteristic of erotic images. A DVD, which comes with the book, contains several scenes from which the photos are taken, with excerpts from the Glimpse DVD series and excerpts from Stuart’s film The Lost Door. The overall impression produced by this work is that Stuart has introduced eroticism into pornography, or vice versa. He clouds issues, confuses codes, disorientates and takes risks, all the while behaving as an artist who is exploring a new middle road - fusional, original and hard to follow, but promising. Somewhere between simplistic X-rated films and pure eroticism, between trivial reality and abortive dreams, he seeks and finds a third way.

hardcover. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only. Codice articolo mon0000146669

Hardcover. Condizione: gut. Im 20. Jahrhundert gab die Pornografie ihr Filmdebüt. Mit einem Anschein von Improvisation und Amateurhaftigkeit war sie zugleich sarkastisch, erfrischend und authentisch. Doch die zunehmende Kommerzialisierung und Kodifizierung hielt die Pornografie alsbald in einem Ghetto aus ökonomischen Interessen und den entsprechenden Ritualen gefangen. Das Ergebnis war ein Mienenspiel aus groben und wenig erregend aufgemachten Bildern. Die so genannte Erotik hatte immer eine bessere Presse", vor allem, weil sie oft literarisch bearbeitet wurde und ihr große Autoren huldigten. Eingeschränkt durch Zensur, vor allem Selbstzensur, konnte die Erotik den Sex immer nur sehr unvollkommen darstellen. Sie verurteilte sich zu Geschmacklosigkeit und Selbstverstümmelung, genährt durch den Glauben, den Ausweg in einer eitlen und redundanten Kultiviertheit zu finden. Paradoxerweise bewies dies aber nur - sehr zur Freude der ewigen Moralisten -, dass Monotonie immer aus Uniformität erwächst und vorfabrizierte Pornografie und Erotik langweilig waren und sind.
