The
Mammoth Book of Erotic Women edited by Maxim Jakubowski.
ISBN-10: 1841199613
This
is a follow-up volume to 'The Mammoth Book of Erotic Photography' and 'The Mammoth Book of Erotic Women' is published
in the same format, page length and number of photographers contained.
Therefore the same criticisms given in the review of 'The Mammoth
Book of Erotic Photography', over this layout,
apply here. Many of the photographers that are featured in 'The
Mammoth Book of Erotic Photography' are again published in this
volume but there are enough examples of the work of new artists to make
the collection worthwhile. 'The Mammoth Book of Erotic Women'
contains far more colour images than were contained within its companion
publication. Contributing photographers are drawn from an international
arena including the UK, USA, Europe, Russia, Argentina, Japan, Australia
and Canada. The publishers draw attention to the fact that this volume
includes several self portraits by noted female photographers.
In
a collection of this size there are bound to be some repetition of style
and a few clones but stand out photographers include Tami Amit, Pascal
Baetens, René De Haan, Jaeda DeWalt, Aaron Hawks, Perry Gallagher,
Chas Ray Krider, Emma Delves-Broughton, Paul Hernandez, Larry Utley, Juan
Carlos Rivas, Kati Rudlova, Matt Schneider, Ivan Scrivener, Marco Tenaglia,
René Whitfield and Gabrielle Rigon.
