Эротика

I was born in 1973 in Slovakia. I started as a graphic designer at 18, a job that combines my two great passions, graphic art and photography. I've been taking pictures since 1995, when my first work was for model agencies. Today I work as a freelance photographer and graphic designer for renowned Czech and Slovak advertising and fashion companies.
For me, life is full of beauty, youth, innocence, energy and a desire to reveal the less well-known elements of femininity. I spend a great deal of time with my models to understand better how they see themselves. I help them reveal their souls and try to convey this to others in my photographs.
As for my models, I prefer natural women in real situations that I enhance with my artistic vision and imagination. I talk to the girls and try to open them to the camera. I contribute artistic form to enable the viewer to appreciate their imagination and desire, to experience the beauty and eroticism of their femininity. The pictures on my website are more sensual, more sexy, more erotic than ever.
I hope you enjoy this selection of pictures of self-confident women, the candid insights and revealing perspectives.

Ich bin 1973 in der Slowakei geboren und begann meine berufliche Karriere mit 18 Jahren als Grafiker. Ein Job, der meine beiden großen Leidenschaften vereint – visuelle Grafik und Fotografie. Seit 1995 stehe ich hinter der Kamera. Meine ersten Arbeiten waren für Model-Agenturen. Auch heute arbeite ich als freier Fotograf und Grafiker für renommierte tschechische und slowakische Werbe- und Mode-Agenturen.
Die Weiblichkeit übt auf mich eine unbezähmbare Anziehungskraft aus und ich möchte diese Quelle voller Schönheit, Jugend, Unschuld, Energie und Lust in meiner Fotografie erforschen.
Als Modelle bevorzuge ich natürliche Frauen in realen Situationen mit Visionen und Fantasie. Viele Ideen für die Fotosessions ergeben sich im Gespräch mit den Models. Das bringe ich in eine künstlerische Form, sodass Sie all ihre Fantasie und Lust, die ganze Schönheit und Erotik ihrer Weiblichkeit betrachten können. In den Bildern, die Sie auch auf meiner Website sehen können, zeigen die Frauen sich sinnlicher als je zuvor.
Erfreuen Sie sich an den offenherzigen Bildern selbstbewusster Frauen!

From bloomers to bikinis: sexy photos since the early days of photography

Mark Rotenberg was inspired to begin collecting lost and forgotten erotic photographs after he stumbled upon over a thousand very graphic vintage photos in a dumpster in Brooklyn. His collection now tops out at about 95,000 photos covering the period from 1860 to 1960.

This special 25th-anniversary edition draws highlights from Rotenberg's collection of crazy hardcore photographs that would make your grandmother squirm. How odd it is to see ladies in bloomers and corsets with men sporting handlebar moustaches, transfixed in the raunchiest of positions!

Long before pin-ups, Playboy, or the Internet, enterprising Parisians at the turn of the 20th-century turned the relatively new invention of the camera toward the female nude. Artfully posed with classical architecture or in flirtatious dishabille with stockings and lingerie, the winking models embody the erotic fantasies of a repressed society. Some of the women shown are demure and shy, wearing a slip or low-cut blouse-a great tease in an age when showing an ankle was scandalous. Their daring glimpses of decolletage carry a particular charge, so rare in today's world of overexposure. These cards were sold, often in packets, at street kiosks and under tabac counters, hush-hush but nevertheless ubiquitous. As foreigners flooded the city in the early part of the 20th-century, the cards became cherished souvenirs that were secretly collected and shared among men abroad. This is when the phrase "French postcards" became a euphemistic code for erotic nude images. These lovely ladies evoke a campy nostalgia that celebrates a healthy, voluptuous ideal of sensual feminine beauty. More retro than raunchy, French Postcards has the saucy fun of a naughty valentine, sure to charm and entertain a friend or lover.

The elegant male nude photographs of George Platt Lynes, many never before published, from a newly discovered archive of negatives. George Platt Lynes was the preeminent celebrity portraitist of his day, shooting for Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar and creating distinctive photographs of iconic cultural figures such as Diana Vreeland, Salvador Dalí, and Orson Welles. But he also produced a separate body of work, kept largely hidden during his lifetime: photographs of the male nude. Many of these photos were shot in the studio and, like his fashion and dance work, were painstakingly posed and lit. They have a cinematic allure that evokes 1940s Hollywood and the lost era of New York’s café society. Many seem to illustrate some unwritten mythology. Others reveal private obsessions of the photographer, who was always alert to the sculptural qualities of a young man at his most vital. This is the only Platt Lynes book to focus on the male nude images in a comprehensive and carefully considered manner. It is the first book to be published with the cooperation of the artist’s estate, which has provided unprecedented access to institutional and private collections, including the Kinsey Institute and the Guggenheim Museum. The result: a trove of unpublished images that are sure to cause a sensation.

Heavenly Body. The rise and rise of Gisele Bündchen

Born in the Brazilian countryside, and nearly six feet tall by the age of 14, Gisele Bündchen grew from humble roots into the most successful supermodel in the world. This book celebrates her 20-year milestone in the industry with a unique and spectacular collection of jaw-dropping glamour and intimate, personal insights.

Gisele was just 18 when she made her breakthrough in the S/S 1998 ready-to-wear “Rain” show of Alexander McQueen, who chose “The Body” thanks to her ability to walk in towering heels on a slippery runway. The same year, Gisele secured her first British Vogue cover, and swiftly became the most in-demand cover girl of her generation. The following year, she was chosen for the cover of American Vogue, shot by Steven Meisel, and lauded as “the return of the sexy model” with her bronzed, athletic beauty defying late-’90s grunge. Since then, Gisele has appeared on more than 1,000 covers around the globe, in approximately 450 fashion shows, and in multinational campaigns for the biggest fashion and beauty brands.

With more than 300 photographs, this book is curated and art directed by Giovanni Bianco. From Gisele’s legendary nude portrait by Irving Penn, chosen as the book’s cover, to iconic shots from such industry luminaries as Steven Meisel, Mario Testino, Peter Lindbergh, David LaChapelle, Juergen Teller, Inez & Vinoodh, Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott, and Corinne Day, it is a unique artistic presentation of the most famous Brazilian export together with Pelé and Senna and the highest-earning model in the world. The breathtaking image collection is accompanied by an introduction by Steven Meisel and tributes from Gisele’s closest friends, family, and fashion leaders, who shed light on how and why she has become one of the greatest models of all time.

Jean-Paul Four is celebrated for his magnificent nudes in black-and-white. He loves women and his photos show a clear fetishist tendency.

Jean-Paul says he prefers working with nonprofessional models, as he feels they show greater emotional commitment. He must have some amazing friends, because his girls are all very beautiful and perfectly suit his style of outstandingly tasteful explicit photography.

Als Mode- und Werbefotograf entdeckte Jean-Paul Four die Ästhetik des nackten Frauenkörpers und ist inzwischen bekannt für seine außergewöhnliche, oft fetisch-orientiert s/w-Fotografie. Jean-Paul: „Ich bevorzuge jetzt mehr die Arbeit mit nicht-professionellen Models, weil ich fühle, daß sie mit einem tieferen emotionalen Engagement dabei sind.“ Er muß über einen erstaunlichen Freundeskreis verfügen, weil alle seine Modelle sehr mutig sind und sich perfekt in seinen künstlerischen Stil einfügen, der von kraftvoller Erotik geprägt ist.

Frank De Mulder is synonymous with erotic photography of the highest caliber. Known as a leader in his field, he endeavors to connect us with each model’s unique personality. All his images are both highly original and sensually compelling. This season marks the publication of the fourth book of his critically acclaimed and internationally renowned nude photography. Entitled Heaven, those who browse these pages will certainly enter a fantastical realm. Thoroughly charged with eroticism, these works have a sophistication few others approach. Each composition is complex, combining a daring spirit with a nuanced sensibility. As you’d expect from De Mulder, the settings are exotic, the models are some of the most stunning in the world, with narratives intriguing and provocative.

In addition to his unequalled credentials as a fine-art photographer, Belgian native Frank de Mulder has created works for such world-famous publications as Playboy, GQ, and Elle. He is unsurpassed at developing a real connection with his models — a trust and empathy abundantly evident in his work.

The collection “Sex & Landscapes” brings together a rich selection from Helmut Newton’s little-known landscape and travel photographs, as well as unseen “tougher” sex pictures, described by Philippe Garner of de Pury & Luxembourg as “Helmut’s world of dark, brooding seas, baroque statuary, crashing waves, a long desert highway under threatening skies, a Berlin park at dusk, enigmatic apartment buildings at night, the Rhine seen from the air, the shadows of airplanes, all this interwoven with hard and voyeuristic sexual imagery, plus a touch of his high style and glamour.” The book’s publication coincides with the exhibition of “Sex and Landscapes,” which will open on June 3 at the inauguration of the Helmut Newton Foundation in Berlin.

Spanning more than five decades, the work of Helmut Newton (1920–2004) defies categorization. His photographic oeuvre is not only unique, but virtually unparalleled in scope, reaching millions through magazines like Vogue and Elle. Helmut Newton.

A genuine visionary, this book celebrates Newton’s lasting influence on visual art to this day.

A Lasting Legacy. Helmut Newton’s prolific body of work

Virtually unparalleled in scope and spanning more than five decades, the photography of visionary Helmut Newton (1920–2004) reached millions through publication in magazines like Vogue and Elle. His oeuvre transcended genres, bringing elegance, style, and voyeurism to fashion, portrait, and glamour photography through a body of work that remains as inimitable as it is unrivaled. Having mastered the art of fashion photography early in his career, Newton’s shoots invariably went beyond standard practice, blurring the lines between reality and illusion. Newton’s clear aesthetic pervades all areas of his work, particularly fashion, portraiture, and nude photography. Women take center stage – with subjects such as Catherine Deneuve, Liz Taylor, and Charlotte Rampling. Moving beyond traditional narrative approaches, Newton’s fashion photography is imbued not only with luxurious elegance and subtle seduction, but also cultural references and a surprising sense of humor.

During the 1990s, Newton shot for the German, American, Italian, French, and Russian editions of Vogue, primarily in and around Monte Carlo where he was living from 1981 onwards. Transforming locations like his own garage into starkly contrasting or particularly minimalist theatrical stages, Newton would often portray the eccentric lives of the beautiful and rich, full of eroticism and elegance, in unconventional scenarios. He made use of and simultaneously questioned visual clichés, at times tinged with self-irony or mockery, but always full of empathy.

Helmut Newton. Legacy, which accompanies an international exhibition tour of Newton’s work, showcases highlights from one of the most published bodies of work in photography, including numerous rediscovered images. A prolific image maker and genuine visionary, this book celebrates Newton’s lasting influence on modern photography and visual art to this day.

The exhibition HELMUT NEWTON. LEGACY will be on view at the Helmut Newton Foundation, Jebensstraße 2, 10623 Berlin from October 31, 2021 to May 22, 2022.

20 Years of SUMO. The Helmut Newton SUMO in XL, revised by June Newton, with a making-of booklet

The Helmut Newton SUMO was a titanic book that towered above anything previously attempted. Twenty years later, we celebrate the legacy of this publishing venture in an XL edition, the result of a project conceived by Helmut Newton and revised by his wife June. Gathering 464 images and a new booklet that takes us through the making of the SUMO, it’s a spectacular tribute to the larger-than-life photographer.

Helmut Newton (1920–2004) always showed a healthy disdain for the easy or predictable, so it’s no surprise that the SUMO was an irresistible project. The idea of a book the size of a private exhibition, with spectacular images, reproduced to state-of-the-art origination and printing standards, emerged from an open, experimental dialogue between photographer and publisher. With the SUMO weighing in — boxed and shrink-wrapped — at 35.4 kg (just under 80 pounds), Newton created a landmark book that stood head and shoulders above anything previously attempted, both in terms of conceptual extravagance and technical specifications.

Published in an edition of 10,000 signed and numbered copies, the SUMO sold out soon after publication and quickly multiplied its value. It now features in numerous collections around the world, including New York’s Museum of Modern Art. The legendary copy number one, signed by more than 100 of the book’s featured celebrities, broke the record for the most expensive book published in the 20th century, sold at an auction in Berlin on April 6, 2000, for 620,000 German marks — about 317,000 euros.

Now, this XL edition celebrates 20 years of SUMO, the result of a project conceived by Helmut Newton some years ago. Revised by his wife June, the volume gathers 464 images and a new booklet that takes us through the making-of this publishing venture — a spectacular tribute to the larger-than-life Helmut Newton, now in a friendly format.

The photographer

Helmut Newton (1920–2004) was one of the most influential photographers of all time. He first achieved international fame in the 1970s while working principally for French Vogue, and became celebrated for his controversial scenarios, bold lighting, and striking compositions in street or interior settings, rather than studios. His many titles and awards included Commandeur de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres.

The editor

June Newton, née Browne, was born in Melbourne, Australia, in 1923. As a young woman she was passionately interested in the theater, and worked as an actress under the name June Brunell, receiving the Erik Kuttner Award in 1956. She married the photographer Helmut Newton in Melbourne in 1948 and became a photographer herself in 1970, changing her name once again to Alice Springs. Her work has been featured in numerous exhibitions and publications, including Vanity Fair, Interview, Elle, and Vogue. Her many famous subjects include William S. Burroughs, Catherine Deneuve, Graham Greene, Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Mapplethorpe, Yves Saint Laurent, and Nicole Kidman.

______________

Первое издание книги "Сумо", напечатанное десятитысячным тиражом, было распродано вскоре после выхода из печати. Каждый экземпляр был пронумерован и нес автограф автора. Формат соответствовал названию - 50 х 70 см, что при 464 страничном объеме (389 фотографий) вылилось более чем 35 кг веса. Каждый фолиант комплектовался специальным дизайнерским столиком, от Филиппа Старка.

Неудивительно, что сейчас эти книги, ставшие экспонатами коллекций по всему миру, включая Нью-Йоркский Музей Современного Искусства, многократно возросли в цене, а первая копия, подписанная более чем сотней знаменитостей, получила статус самой дорогой книги ХХ века - 6 апреля 2000 года она была продана на аукционе в Берлине за 620 000 немецких марок - примерно 430 000 американских долларов.

Данное переиздание всего в два раза скромнее размерами, но многократно ценой!

White Women, Helmut Newton's legendary first work, appeared more than twenty years ago. With it's superior mixture of aesthetics, technical perfection and bourgeois decadence it has lost nothing of its potency and attractiveness. Newton's work encompasses a wealth of themes, also embodying facets of the mass-media world of glamour, masquerade and show. Using subtle, yet striking images--like those of Paloma Picasso, Veruschka, Elsa Peretti, Karl Lagerfeld, David Hockney, and Charlotte Rampling--Newton embraces the delicate, natural beauty of the naked female body. White Women is a masterpiece of erotic visual literature.

About the photographer:

Helmut Newton (1920-2004) was one of the most influential fashion photographers of all time. Born in Berlin, he arrived in Australia in 1940 and married June Brunell (a.k.a. Alice Springs) eight years later. He achieved international fame in the 1970`s while working principally for French Vogue, and over the next three decades his celebrity and influence continued to grow. Eschewing studios for the most part, Newton preferred to shoot in the streets or in interiors. His mixture of controversial scenarios, bold lighting, and striking compositions came to form his signature look. In 1990 he was awarded the "Grand Prix National" for photography; in 1992 was awarded by the German government "Das Grosse Verdienstkreuz" for his services to German culture and was appointed "Officer des Arts, Lettres et Sciences" by S.A.S. Princess Caroline of Monaco. In 1996, he was appointed "Commandeur de l`Ordre des Arts et des Lettres" by Philippe Douste-Blazy, the French Minister of Culture. Working and living in close companionship with his wife until his death at 83, through his last click of the shutter he continued to be as distinctive and influential as ever.

Творчество Хельмута Ньютона многогранно и разнообразно. В 1960-е годы оно считалось шокирующим и провокационным, а в наши дни Ньютон снискал репутацию фотографа, способного изображать женщину такой, какая она есть. Это женщина нового тысячелетия, которая принимает собственные решения, а не следует воле других, наслаждается собственным телом и единолично распоряжается им, женщина, уверенная в себе и страстная. Хельмут Ньютон – певец сюрреализма, привнесший в современность дыхание Берлина 1920-х годов. Его фотографии изображают наши тайные страхи и желания, они полны тонкой театральности и изысканного декаданса. Модная фотография, обнаженная натура, портрет – вот три категории, на которые Хельмут Ньютон разделял свои работы. Его съемки для рекламы и модных журналов всегда находились на грани приемлемого для широкой публики и вызывали самые противоречивые реакции: от восхищения до проклятий.
