3.0 out of 5 stars
Skip this year's subscription to FHM and Maxxim,
This review is from: Colorotic (Compact Books Photo) (Hardcover)
I picked this item up purely out of interest to see what Karkau had done. My reason for a rating of only 3 stars is based on the content relative to the other works I have in my library (Newton, Mapplethorpe, Bisang, May, etc.). What Karkau has done is present the erotic without slipping into the pornographic. He does it well. However, comparing his work to Peter Gorman or Marc Baptiste, I find a lot of the poses obviously contrived. The key word here is "obviously". These seemed to conflict with the raw aspect of the photos themselves. It presents as a conflict between glamour and casual nude photography. Perhaps this is what was intended. A sort of shooting for Diesel at home. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. A buy if you are an FHM or Maxxim fan.
