📗 Libro en inglés MOTEL FETISH: A HIDEAWAY FOR DREAMS OF DESIRE (ED. TRILINGÜE)

English / French / GermanBehind closed doorsTaschen is this art vampire. Hes going to bite me on the neck and my art is going to have immortality.
- Chas Ray Krider (from an interview with Eric Kroll)

A number of years ago I began to see distinctive layouts in Hustlers Leg World that got me nervous. The photographs were that good. Whoever it was had style and made the women his women. Krider women. Women I began to desire on a monthly basis. In the world of professional golf there is an expression the worlds greatest golfer not to win a major tournament. Chas Ray Krider was the worlds greatest erotic photographer not to have a book.

Thanks to TASCHEN we now have over 160 Krider images to pore over. To salivate over. Like a good film noir, he takes us to lustful places. Is it a crime scene or a sea of lust? These beautiful, languid women wait for whom? For me. For you. They play the waiting game beautifully. An ass in the air, a pair of crossed legs in nylons, all bathed in warm tones. A still life unstuck in time. So this is what goes on behind closed doors?

Oh, I almost forgot. Alongside these many Midwest femme fatales is Dita, raven-haired icon. Not since Betty Page has a woman fleshed out so correctly a vintage girdle and bra ensemble.

Enjoy. He takes you places where you only vaguely think you have been.
