Life and death are the themes which have always exerted an incredible fascination on human beings. This trilogy, entitled Conserving - which includes 'Conserving Fish', 'Conserving Animals' and 'Conserving Humans' - is a sensitive confrontation with a part of our life that is frequently repressed or treated taboo. Daniel and Geo Fuchs pursue exciting new paths in this photographic work. Their virtuosic use of lighting enables them to breathe new life into specimens, some of which have been conserved in alcohol or formaldehyde for as long as 300 years. The appeal of their photographs derives from the breathtaking beauty of the colours and structures and from a magical expressiveness which invites the viewer to enter hitherto unknown worlds. The images, which recall the enigmatic paintings of Hieronymus Bosch, simultaneously become icons and venerable, reverential objects. For the first time ever, these artistic photographs depict specimens from natural history museums and anatomical collections, many of which have never before been on public display. Daniel and Geo Fuchs rank among the newly discovered stars in the world of contemporary photography. In recent years, they have won international accolades for their projects and exhibitions. The photos in this trilogy are scheduled to be shown at numerous international exhibitions. The photos are especially impressive thanks to the unprecedented brilliance of the colour and the extreme depth of field, which conveys a startlingly three-dimensional impression. International famed photographers Daniel and Geo Fuchs have successfully translated a fascinating theme into a major document in the field of contemporary photography. Text in English, German, French & Italian.

In his third book, cult photographer Ralf Vulis makes wishes come true for anyone who ever dreamt of watching young, happy girls playing a variety of sports -- without wearing tricots. They're obviously having a lot of fun as they hop, skip, jump and give their maximal performances in front of Vulis' camera. Tennis, swimming, weight lifting, high hurdles, javelin throwing and long jump are a few of the disciplines in which the girls excel in this truly maximal sporty revelation. Ralf Vulis' philosophy is simple and convincing: "If people, no matter where in the world they live, would simply take a more relaxed attitude towards love, sex and eroticism, then they could have just as much fun as I have!".

Aren't we all, from time to time, possessed by the voyeuristic urge to peek into the erotic private life of 'the pretty girl next door'? In this book, Vulis creates a marvellous tension between the model and the viewer, a tension which grows even stronger because the viewer feels the girl's observing and inviting gaze. It is a titillating experience that almost becomes an addiction because of the two girls' disarmingly natural erotic aura. Text in English, German &amp; French.

History & Criticism

One waits for a new Vulis almost the way one waits for tomorrow's newspaper. It is unusual to see that this book is practically a conceptual work. But the unabashed openness and spontaneity of the girls once again bursts every conceptual frame. Ralf Vulis documents how erotically the girls in his hometown of Riga can stage themselves. This is another cult book!

100 Naked Girls on a Chair (German, English and French Edition)

"The only real human is the nude human." (Goethe). This is a photographic portrait of nudists, a lively documentary of natural, naked life on the beach or in athletic activities. Dieter Nagel and his nudist photos transport us back to Paradise. It's a very special blend of harmonious colours and moods: the blue of the ocean and the sky, the warm colours of skin and sand. The protagonists in this book are natural. They move naturally, nakedly, in the great outdoors. And we would gladly be there with them.

Public Nudists (German Edition)

Dieter Nagel

Presently living in Los Angeles Batts' admixture of cubist geometry, '70s exploitation themes, bizarre lighting techniques, a variety of textured backgrounds, slice and dice editing, and a keen eye for beauty, in its many forms have contributed to the piquancy and relevance of his work. Batts has helped to transform the fetish standard from a staid, complacent, silicone world to something much edgier -- avowedly modern and challenging. This book provides an engaging, at times quite revealing glimpse into the future of fetish photography and the state of art as it finds its place in the 21st century.

Nagel's second volume of photographs captures portraits of nudists who prefer the aesthetic of smooth, hairless pubes. What does it mean when a person removes his or her pubic hair? Nowadays it's not only women, but also an ever larger number of men who are opting to shorten or even entirely shave off their pubic hair. The 'bottomless' trend is in full swing. For naturists, shaving should be understood as a self-confident expression of their joie de vivre because they expose their hairless genitals openly, unashamedly, and without ulterior motives.

Shaven Nudists (German Edition)

Norwegian photographer Petter Hegre is a master of sensual, erotic photography. His style is spontaneous and full of energy. The colours are fresh and expressive. One can see and feel the profound passion with which Hegre has photographically accompanied Katya, his Russian model. The results are wonderful, intimate portraits of a young woman who, with an intoxicating blend of Lolita-like naivety and charming gazes, is indeed capable of making an onlooker fall in love with her... Text in English, German and French.

Girls! Girls! Girls! For anyone picking up this unusual book, this is the first thing that will strike them. Latvian girls are different. The way they break so easily into laughter, and their obvious pleasure in the erotic photo sessions ...but the main event was eight naked young women taking the bus through the centre of the capital, Riga. Everyone had a lot of fun, including the somewhat incredulous audience, the models themselves and, of course, the photographer! Text in English, German &amp; French.

A homage to the beauty and diversity of the female body, full of tenderness, poetry, and effervescent eroticism. Text in English, French and German.
