Publisher's Synopsis
Text in German & English. These are tough times for avowed derriere eroticists. Breasts have become the modern focal points of erotic attraction, and buttocks seem to have fallen victim to a taboo. But according to ethnologists, the upraised bottom and the presentation of the female pudenda rank among the strongest sexual sign stimuli. This expresses itself in the human urge for artistic creation: painters, sculptors, literati and poets have always kept a sharp eye on backsides. So too has photographer Martin Krake, who evokes our enthusiasm with this volume, which contains a large number of erotic rear views. According to an African proverb, "The rear is not the end of it all, but only the beginning."
