Decent Exposures
AU$100.00 Read MoreAdd to cartPeter Simon
Berkeley: Wingbow Press, 1974.“This is not a book of Nude Photography (pictures of people who took their clothes off to be photographed) but portraits of people taken when they happened to have them off. They are representations of an alternative or, at least, the beginnings of one. A sensibility. A state of consciousness where it is not necessary to cover your genitals any more than your face, any more than your feelings, any more than your love, any more than your human soul.” (from the introduction by Asa Eliot)

Nudism in a Cold Climate: The Visual Culture of Naturists in Mid-20th-Century Britain
AU$65.00 Read MoreAdd to cartAnnebella Pollen
Los Angeles: Atelier Editions, 2021.“Annebella Pollen’s richly illustrated study examines the idiosyncratic phenomenon of social nudism, or naturism, in 20th-century Britain, a place known for its lack of sunshine and conservative attitudes to sex. By bringing naturists’ own words and images to light, Nudism in a Cold Climate tells this little-known but fascinating history for the first time. From the 1930s, thousands of people appeared nude in books and magazines associated with the nudist movement, drawing attention to the cause, attracting public curiosity and inciting moral panics. Naturist nude photography offers a fascinating lens on moral, legal and aesthetic shifts over a century of dramatic social change, including national beliefs about sex and gender, ethnicity and class, pleasure and power. Nudism in a Cold Climate offers readers a fascinating glimpse behind British veils of propriety and a unique view inside an enduring experimental culture that sought to radically challenge, liberate and ultimately transform conventional attitudes to bodies and their representations.” (publisher’s blurb)
