Riassunto

Professional wrestling is currently one of the most popular forms of entertainment in America. - In the early Seventies, Ehret began to stage and photograph female wrestling scenarios in his studio. This erotic photographic genre has come to be known as 'apartment wrestling'. - Shot on sets with controlled lighting, his photographs have a sense of uncanny drama absent from previous examples of the 'cat fighting' fetish style. - This book is the first to present, to a mass audience, the golden age of pro wrestling and its illegitimate sibling: apartment wrestling. - By bringing together, for the first time, these two separate bodies of Theo Ehret's work, 'Exquisite Mayhem' presents the roots of today's overtly eroticized theatrical world of pro wrestling.
