Berg, André et Patrice Caumon |
| Catalogue | |
| Paris : Jean Moulin, 1981 | |
| isbn: 2-903800-01-4 | |
| Réunier le cuir et le caoutchouc, c'est pour le connaisseurs, une gageure. Comme le citait déjá Krafft-Ebing dans son gros 'catalogue', "Le fétichiste est un monothéiste". Il n'y a pas de disciplines des deux genre, qui sont deux contraires: l'un va se porter à l'érotisme de la maîtresse, de la soumission, ou au sadisme plus ou moins bon genre, l'autre s'ouvre sur la douceur et la régression. L'un crie, l'autre murmure. | |

Cartier, Philippe |
| Plastic Bondage | |
| Zürich : Edition Skylight, 2008 | |
| isbn: 3-03-766587-4 | |
| Philippe Cartier: "Not long ago, when I had hung up all of the pictures on pinboards in order to do a layout for the book, I recalled a question one of my freinds had posed: what do I want to show? The only answer I can think of is 'beauty'. I know that this answer will be unsatisfactory for some. I mean the ones who will object to the way I represent women. However, the truth is that, above and beyond sadomasochism, I want to show the beauty of the women involved. S/M is the field in wich you are typically deluged with vulgar, often violent images. I don't like that. I like gracefulness. So here it is - my first book: Plastic Bondage. (It was high time too!)" | |

Delves-Broughton, Emma |
| Kinky Couture | |
| Frankfurt am Main : Goliath, 2003 | |
| isbn: 3-936709-07-6 | |
| Elegant erotic color and Black & White art fetish photos in historical English settings. Fetish-strapped and-bound models are posed out of doors against splendid backdrops of stately gardens, castles, and columned mansions. Inside these aristocratic locales, models are draped provocatively over ornate four-poster beds, lounging against ancient wooden panelling or slipping, scantily clad, into a shadowy wine cellar with nothing but a candle for comfort. From delicate hand-tinted black and white images to sultry, glamorous, atmospheric color, these are art photos that excite. | |

Deugd, Leo de |
| Book of Revelations : Alternative Women | |
| Rotterdam : Revelati Books, 2006 | |
| isbn: 90-78052-01-5 | |
| Photographic work by De Deugd clearly gives a feeling of privacy. The portraits are personal moments of desire and parts of sexual life; both in reality and fiction. In his work De Deugd processes a complete landscape, a reality dedicated to intimacy, fantasy, desire, dominance as well as emotions. Unique to Leo’s work is that the model and photographer appear to be in some sort of dance. At those moments the poses are replaced by acts. The difference is that poses result in a static picture, whereas with acts a dynamic picture is created. | |

DuPret, John, and Linda Ashton-Evans [foreword] |
| Sirens | |
| London : Erotic Print Society, 2006 | |
| isbn: 1-904989-29-2 | |
| Odysseus Sirens were often portrayed as beautiful women who lured sailors to destruction with their enchanted songs. However, the women portrayed in John DuPret's book don't sing, but they have tatoos and piercings, wear black nylons, corsets and 7 inch heels, and 'are so deeply sensual that you want to pick up each photograph and lick it. You just know their skin would taste of scented sweat and seduction', as Belinda Ashton-Evans writes in the foreword for this book with erotic black and white bdsm photography. | |

| isbn: 3-03-766581-5 | |
| Der Name Idoia bedeutet Quelle. Idoia, die wolllüstige Dienerin des Dionysos, lebt und herrscht im Club El Inferno . Ihre Lust ist so frei und natürlich, dass sie Sie vom ersten Augenblick an entzücken wird. Dieses Buch ist ein kleiner Spaziergang durch die Welt der erotischen Fantasien, die ein Fotograf und sein Model, zugleich seine Geliebte und Muse, unternommen haben. Jede Stimmung, jedes Bild, so bizarr es auch sein mag, ist ein Produkt der Verführung: Sie weiß, was die Linse ihres Pygmalion sehen will, und gibt sich wolllüstig den erotischen Wünschen ihres Liebhabers hin. Was bedeuten schon soziale Konventionen, wenn sich die Pforten des Clubs El Inferno schließen? Nichts von draußen existiert, es gibt nur das unendliche Begehren und die ursprünglichen Genüsse des erotischen Tieres, das wir Menschen sind. | |

| It's Luis Durante himself, who explains his drive, his private passion and inspiration for his stunningly erotic and intimate photography, starring his model Idoia. "Idoia! I'm filled with desire, passion and veneration for her, my great love, my muse. I adore her colors. Her chestnut hair, sanguine lips, mahogany skin, honey eyes and above all the pastel pink of her vagina. Together with her, I want to fill this world: to let it grow ever grander, more extensive and more profound: to embark on a voyage without return into the world of desire, dreams and lust: to journey to warm moist tropics, heated by the sun of an eternal spring..." | |

| München : Edition Reuss, 2007 | |
| isbn: 3-934020-47-X | |
| English photographer China Hamilton has earned worldwide fame with his artistically staged pictures. His photos are intimate portraits of women who delight in opening themselves and in surrendering unconditionally to the obsessions of this master photographer. This collaboration results in images that are mercilessly honest and incredibly powerful. The play with the dark and abyssal aspects of erotic fantasy is brilliantly staged through the skilful use of light and shadow.

| China Hamilton unlocks The Cabinet of Dark Things and through his photography allows us to explore his own particular world of sado-masochism. China's imagery captures the moments where pleasure and pain merge into one exquisite sensation. But his photographs are much more than this. Beautiful, disturbing and tender, they offer a door into this strange and shadowy realm. Forget who you are for a moment, enter this door and allow yourself to be drawn into China's world. It might even seem familiar, if only you would admit it to yourself. For it is a place closer than you might imagine, where your darkest desires become real. | |

Kern, Richard |
| New York Girls | |
| Köln : Taschen Verlag, 1997 | |
| isbn: 3-8228-8180-5 | |
| Illustrated with over 180 color and black & white photographs, this book traces the career of New York's most infamous photographer / film maker, Richard Kern. Kern: "The models are New York girls by my definition. At some point, they have all lived in Manhattan, drawn by that yearning for excitement and lifestyle intensity that motivates everyone that moves here. I don't think there are any Manhattan natives in this book. Some of the women came from nearby Long Island and some arrived from as far away as Japan but they all became New Yorkers by spending time in the downtown scene looking for fun." | |

Doris Kloster's photos lead us into a world of lust on the brink of the abyss, revealing the true image of cult. | |

This book follows the evolution of fetish as its role in the club scene grew and its influence on fashion and culture developed, from pre-dawn, meat-market New York City photo shoots to red fetish heels in front of the Kremlin. | |

| London : Serpent's Tail, 1997 | |
| isbn: 1-85242-552-0 | |
| Over the last fifteen years, Grace Lau's photographic journey throught the world of sexuality, gender identity and sado-masochistic subculture has earned her a reputation as one of the leading photographers of the perverse. This retrospective details that journey from her earliest male nudes, to her life as a voyeur at Skin Two functions and in the dungeons of dominatrices, culminating in her most recent work on cross-dressing. From a feminist perspective, Grace Lau explores sex and power and produces work that is revelatory, liberating and that celebrates the variety of sexual experience. Her photos travel well beyond the confines of the S/M circuits, appearing on the covers of Time Out as well as in the National Portrait Gallery and Chelsea Arts Club. | |

Mealie, Christopher R. |
| Sexcats! | |
| Franfurt am Main : Goliath Verlag, 2003 | |
| isbn: 3-936709-06-8 | |
| The photographs in this book are taken from the golden epoch of girly photographs; from the mid 1950's to the mid 1960's. This was a time when rapacity was fulfilled not by gynecological excursion, but by the sultry unveiling of just enough to impassion. Despite the glamor, gaudiness, and lack of superfluous skin, the pictures present in this volume demonstrate a genuine allure in all thir seediness. tame as they may seem by present standards of decency, these images are not so much quaint as they are frank, yet seductive documents of genuine sleaze. | |

Moineau, Roger |
| The Illustrated Book Of Dominatrices | |
| London : Erotic Print Society, 2003 | |
| isbn: 1-898998-58-2 | |
| De Sade's Justine, Lady Latex and Mistress Sidonia are just a few of the formidable women encountered here. The successful dominatrix must have "an erect bearing, a purposeful stride and above all an expression of extraordinary severity". Their dressings-down must involve dressing-up: a teacher's black gown, a sharply tailored office two-piece, a crackling nurse's tunic and a policewoman's white shirt with handcuffs at the ready are popular choices. | |

| Kiss of Fire : A Romantic View of Sadomasochism | |
| Heidelberg : Kehrer Verlag, 2003 | |
| isbn: 3-933257-94-8 | |
| Joseph Bean: "The Photography of Barbara Nitke easily rises to the level of fine art, bringing a kind of raw and real sexuality to a level that few other artists even attempt. There is nothing either salacious or illustrative in Nitke's work. Using the light and shadow of life as it actually looks (...) she makes portraits of moments and passions, peopled by those who lived the moments and experienced the passions." | |

Russell, Lynn Paula |
| Painful Pleasures : The Erotic Art of Lynn Paula Russell | |
| London : Erotic Print Society, 2004 | |
| isbn: 1-898998-95-7 | |
| In 'Painfull Pleasures' we are fortunate enough to find a collection of some of Lynn Paula Russell's most outstanding work which lays bare the sexual fetish of corporal punishment. The focus is on her drawings commissioned to illustrate Februs and Janus, both magazines dedicated to the act of chastisement. Paula's drawings are unashamedly erotic and full of the energies and emotions of sex. Her realistic, emotive style carries you effortlessly into a realm of fantasy that is as rare as it is wonderful. But you would be less able to escape to this world were it not for, in addition to an extraordinary imagination, the fine draughtmanship and the innate sense of design and composition that is always present in Paula's art. There is no beter guide to this world of corporal punishment than the artist herself; by word and image she brings into play her talents and a special insight born of personal experience to show the reader a hidden door to a world of painful pleasures, where Beauty surrenders meekly to her punishment with both love and passion. | |

Sigrist, Martin [editor] |
| Fetish Dreams | |
| Zürich : Edition Skylight, 2008 | |
| isbn: 3-03-766586-6 | |
| Being able to observe the fetish fantasies of other people in all of their incredible variety as presented in this book of photographs wakens the little 'voyeur' in all of us – and in all photographers. At the same time, however, we experience the other side of things: the joy of exhibitionism when the most attractive female erotic models you can think of present themselves to the photographer in lascivious or even submissive poses or – at the other extreme – unabashedly live out their dominance on camera with irrepressible lust. | |

Stuart, Roy and Jean-Claude Baboulin |
| Roy Stuart : Volume I | |
| Köln : Tashen Verlag, 1998 | |
| isbn: 3-8228-7872-3 | |
| "Animal sexuality differs from eroticism in that human sexuality is limited by taboos and the domain of eroticism is that of the transgression of these taboos," is how Georges Bataille explains the nature of eroticism. In his photographs, Roy Stuart sheds new light on that most human of acts. His photos marked by brilliant technique and a deft sense of the 'mise en scène' possess a rare erotic power, presenting human sexuality, stripped of all prudishness. In turns voyeuristic, in turns narrative, his pictures with their disarming explicitness subvert traditional moral codes and force the viewer to re-evaluate his or her pre-conceived notions of sexuality. | |
|
|
Stuart, Roy |
| Roy Stuart : Volume II | |
| Köln : Taschen Verlag, 1999 | |
| isbn: 3-8228-6870-1 | |
| "As the great master of truly erotic, actual art, Roy Stuart is long overdue for a big coffee table book. In this volume you'll find many of your favorite Glimpse photo's, as well as never-seen outtakes, work from other magazines and Roy's personal collection. Here on fine art paper Roy's command of lighting is more evident than ever, his melding of fashion and raw lust stunning. Ever the perfectionist, he worked closely with the editors to make this a statement of social philosophy as well as a photo book." [Dian Hanson in Leg Show]. Volume II features 17 photo stories covering 240 pages, including a large number of hitherto unpublished pictures. |

|
Stuart, Roy |
| Roy Stuart : Volume III | |
| Köln : Taschen Verlag, 2000 | |
| isbn: 3-8228-6054-9 | |
| Roy Stuart's most recent work is more explicit than ever. Continuing to break down the boundaries of sexual politics with his provocative photography. Stuart ventures further into the ambivalent relationship between reality and illusion, using role-playing to parody conventional ideas of sex. More daring, more subversive, volume III features Stuart's most explicit work to date. In his mission to avoid the typical iconography of a culture based on appearances, Stuart not-so-typical subjects in his storytelling. His latest subjects vary greatly, including older women who, in their non-conformity to orthodox standards of beauty, are awkwardly out of place in their roles as dolled-up sex objects. What is society teaching us about sexual attraction? Does western culture brainwash us into taking on traditional sexual roles, wherein women must be beautiful and men must be dominant? Forget what mainstream society has taught you about power roles, desirability, and body image. Stuart depicts a world where barriers are abolished and women exercise the same sexual license as men. | |

Stuart, Roy and Dian Hanson |
| Roy Stuart : Volume IV : The Fourth Body | |
| Köln : Taschen Verlag, 2004 | |
| isbn: 3-8228-2557-3 | |
| In luxury apartments or the meanest streets of Paris, Roy Stuart captures women ecstatically fulfilling their sexual fantasies. Stuart's players are real people engaged in real sex, from a teasing flash of panty to the fullest expression of charged sexuality, from the natural perfection of dewy youth to the experienced charm of women 'of a certain age'. For Stuart there are no taboos but bad photography and the passion-numbing stupidity of modern commercial pornography. For those who think they know the full range of Stuart, The Fourth Body will come as a revelation; these are images lifted from the secret drawer of the Stuart's archive, more daring than anything he's previously published. [With DVD]. | |

|
Stuart, Roy and Dian Hanson |
| Roy Stuart : Volume V | |
| Köln : Taschen Verlag, 2008 | |
| isbn: 3-8228-4501-9 | |
| Taking advantage of Western society's relative freedom, Roy Stuart 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, both erotic and pornographic, but beyond voyeurism, with which he strives to explore the female body, attitudes, instincts, and dreams. In his new book, he hones this exploration into something more forthright, close to film. The overall impression produced by this work is that Stuart has introduced eroticism into pornography, or vice versa. [With DVD]. | |

Ward, Tony |
| Orgasm | |
| San Francisco : Last Gasp, 2000 | |
| isbn: 0-86719-501-0 | |
| "Tony Ward's photography unleashes our deepest fantasies and allows us to participate in those fantasies. His outstanding use of light adds drama and integrity to images that appeal to our basic instincts. Although Tony Ward's pictures are sexually explicit, his voyeuristic approach preserves the intimacy and sensuality of the moment. Tony is full of inspiration and we can expect the unexpected from his future work." [Bob Guccione] | |

Ward, Tony |
| Orgasm XL | |
| San Francisco : Last Gasp, 2002 | |
| isbn: 0-86719-552-5 | |
| "Ward surveys the diversity of contemporary sexual expression directorially, orchestrating the action without dictating (or censoring) the behavior. Raw yet sophisticated, crude yet intricate, these mini-drama's bring the lustful, fetishistic, and exhibitionistic impulses of these actors under the guidance of a distinctive stylist." | |

| Since his photographs often deal with a kind of joyful, blatant, female sexuality, Trevor Watson might once have been cast as a 'glamour' photographer. But those who want to pigeon-hole his work will have yo be disappointed. Trevor's exploration of sex and fetish is now so extensive, his body of work now so large, that it defies any easy categorisation. Indeed, it is more as if he has invented a genre entirely of his own. | |

| In this iconoclastic F**k Fashion, Ben Westwood lets rip. Frustrated by the censorship imposed by publishers on his previous books, he wants his explicit photography to be available to the public. In this collection of over 200 provocative images the models are stunningly sexy and the colours are bold, electric and saturated. Here is an extraordinary and sophisticated visual talent, which is only now beginning to be recognised. | |

| "Spanking? What’s it all about? Don’t ask me, I’ve only seen it from the business side, as a photographer, but I do know it makes people very horny," says Eric Wilkins, whose 1970s photographs of spanking couples graced the pages of the soft core CP magazine SWISH. So Eric kept his finger on the shutter button and recorded what models did after the spanking session: this was unscripted, often spontaneously very ‘hardcore’ indeed and, at the time, unprintable. Now SPANK! tells the full story... | |

| Fetishism is the quasi-religious adoration of objects to which a special meaning is attributed. Sexual fetishism transfers this to materials (leather, latex, metal), bodyparts (legs, feet, hair), accessories (chains, clothing, shoes). It is, in other words, the sexual admiration of an inanimate object. Sexual fetishism is often related to bondage, sadism and masochism (BDSM). While formerly considered a taboo, even pathological, images and patterns of fetishism have been more than willingly embraced by today's mass-culture and are omnipresent in high fashion, advertising and music video's, usually in softened form. Latex, leather and symbols of s/m have become parts of our everyday culture. They have lost their potential for controversy, it seems. But what does 'real' fetishism look like, and how do photographic artists see it? From leather to lace, silk and satin, stilettos, fishnets and handcuffs - this book presents the many facets of contemporary fetish photography. |
