FUTURE OF EROTIC FANTASY ART

FUTURE OF EROTIC FANTASY ART PAUL PEART-SMITH Book Number: 74455 Product format: Hardback When illustrator, cartoonist, designer and concept artist of over 20 years' experience Paul Peart-Smith began his research into today's erotic fantasy art for this book it soon dawned upon him that just as the desire for - and act of - sex cannot be scientifically described, neither can the imaginative nature of eroticism and its depiction. It is his contention that it is John Henry Fuseli's 1781 painting The Nightmare which is the forbear of erotic fantasy art in its many forms. A sensation when first exhibited, it depicts a pallid woman reclining in a dark room, with an enigmatic look on her apparently sleeping face - is she in turmoil or the throes of pleasure. The demonic figure of an incubus squats upon her stomach, and as if things were not disturbing enough already, the duo are being observed by an unusual voyeur, a white-eyed horse with flaring nostrils. It combines eroticism, enigmatic horror, myth and fantasy and remains today extremely unsettling. The artists featured in this volume of sensual art are Fuseli's descendants. In nine chapters with titles such as Illuminating Urges, Sinister Sensuality, Vivacious Vixens, Sci-Fi & Cyber Gals and Angels & Fairies, here are the most spectacularly curvaceous and phenomenally well-endowed amazons, warriors, ethereal beings, witches, vampires, succubi, princesses, demons, nymphs, elves, pixies, angels - in fact, the entire range of not-quite-human but overtly female beings. The book features over 180 full or three-quarter page artworks in vivid, eye-opening colour, with details of and comments from the artist, and how the picture was created. Astounding, sexy stuff in 192pp, 10" square format. Published price: £19.99 Bibliophile price: £10.00
