School for Courtesans - Meretrices




Here's a fairly extensive collection of (mainly) vintage nudes dealing (mainly) with classical themes. I would advise that you appreciate the images, but treat the written content with some skepticism.

Art Nudes reader Miri Caman wrote in to tell us about a book (s)he? has just published that is on topic to this blog.

Muse: six photographers talk about their life, work and what inspires them

The female form has been the most widely photographed subject since the invention of the camera.

Muse: six photographers talk about their life, work and what inspires them is an attempt to delve into this phenomenon and explore the photographer-model relationship through interviews with acclaimed practitioners of erotic and nude photography such as Luis Durante (Spain), Roy Stuart (France), Charlie Roff (England), Jock Sturges (United States), Vlastimil Kula (Czech Republic) and Tony Keeler (Spain). In dealing with this unique “thing” that occurs between the photographer and the photographed, this book also provides us "with valuable insight into other decidedly non-photographic areas of the human condition".

99 pages. With 12 black-and-white photos.

English-Spanish bilingual edition.

Like any group photo site, the quality level on the Spanish language Olhares.com varies from great to mediocre. However, with several hundred photos in the nude category alone, this one'll keep you busy for awhile.

Correction: Site is in Portuguese. Thanks to the anonymous reader who corrected me in the comments.

R.I.T.Z.E. ... die etwas andere Filmseite




The images in this gallery of 1960s era "Sexploitation" film lobby cards are certainly not fine art. However, they have a very distinctive look that is just begging to be developed into a clever series by the right photographers. Any takers? If any of you do work with this idea, I'd love to see the results!
