TASCHEN Ed Fox, Vol. 2

Bellissimo il dvd allegato, molto artistico e seducente, il libro l'ho trovato meno interessante invece, vale comunque l'aquisto.

Beautifully done. It contains his full expressions maximized by the potentional of each model. This book brings out everything that creativity, beauty and sensuality have combined together. It's only fitting that legendary photographer Ed Fox is at the helm. He is the one who inspires in bringing the model out into us. A very fitting conclusion if he says that it could be his last is true. Bravo.

Taschen is a quality publisher. Books from this German publisher always are published using high quality materials. From the boards, the binding, the dust jackets, paper stock, and ink... Taschen has always delivered an exceptional product.And Ed Fox II is no exception. The dust jacket is thick with two tones of gloss for subtle variations that reflect when tilted. The boards of the book also use two tones of gloss, appearing solid blue at one angle but revealing a large "Ed Fox II" when tilted against the light. The paper stock is thick with the crisp ink travelling all the way to the edge of the paper.However, the contents of this tome are really what sends it over the 5-star edge.To begin, Ed Fox offers a three page text introduction (in English, German, and French). The State of the Feet Report. Ed Fox II is unapologetic adult erotica. He explains his attraction to female feet, eyes, and beauty while describing his various career roles and experiences photographing the female model. This introduction offers interesting philosophical questions and is not simply an obligatory artist bio.TeNeues, another high quality publisher, has also published several collections of artistic nude photography.  Russell James , The Morning After (English, German, French, Italian and Spanish Edition) , and  Rankin's Heidilicious  to name but three. Ed Fox II could also be described as an artistic collection of nude photography. But when compared to the aforementioned, this collection has an edge, more attitude, and is unabashedly sexual.The most common theme in the photography is feet. Painted toes, tilted arches, and smooth soles spread flauntingly towards the camera... you'll get plenty. Most images focus on the foot, but include the rest of the model in the shot also - but not always. Most shots also include the feet of the model in the frame, but the occasional exception again exists. Regardless, Ed Fox knows what he's doing and here he's at the top of his game.Toys. Yes, that kind. These accessories are put to stimulating use throughout. Not much is left for the imagination either; these are no mere hints of sexuality, but rather a bold celebration of it! Nothing here is disrespectful to the model, however. These models always appear confident, sensual, feminine, and assertive.Ed Fox II is a daring adventurous collection of photography, glorifying the sexuality of the female - and specifically the beautiful female foot. This photographic essay can certainly be enjoyed by those that appreciate edgy artistic nudes. But if one is stimulated by the idea of a soft sole and yawning toes being pushed playfully close to the lens, then Ed Fox II may offer a tantalising glimpse into heaven itself.

Un cadeau qui a beaucoup plu, de très belles photographies pour ceux qui aiment l'univers de Ed Fox! Un très bon achat

Ich hatte zuerst Ed Fox: Glamour from the Ground Up von 2010 bestellt und war begeistert. Sofort musste ich diese Fortsetzung von 2011 haben und kann nur sagen: noch ein dickes Sahnehäubchen drauf. Allein das größere Format dieses Bandes und die ausgereiftere Technik der Videos intensivieren den Genuss. Ansonsten gilt für Ed Fox 02 alles, was ich zum 1. Band geschrieben hatte:Auch für den, der (noch?) kein passionierter Liebhaber von Frauenfüßen, vulgo Fußfetischist, ist, bieten die vielfältigen Anblicke wunderbarer Füße, im Kontext all der sonstigen, köstlichen weiblichen Körperteile, eine an der Basis prickelnde Erweiterung der erotischen Wahrnehmung. Ed Fox fotografiert seine heissen Modelle in Alltagsumgebungen, manchmal mit schmutzigen Füßen, manchmal zusammen mit ganz und gar ungestylten Latinomännern, er lässt sie agieren, lässt sie das tun, was sie gerne machen, und erzielt damit eine Atmosphäre von erregender Unmittelbarkeit. Ed Fox ist ein Großmeister der PornArt, wie etwa auch Andrew Blake, von dem er für die Videos gelernt hat. Nur ist Ed Fox noch näher dran am Wurzelchakra. Für mich eine Eröffnung! Danke an Dian Hanson und Taschen für diese preiswerte, hochklassige Edition.
