Kool Sexy Dudes with Less Edge!, January 23, 2002
This review is from: Kool Dude Photographic Diary (Hardcover)
Lalli's latest collection of male nude images, I think, are among his best. These guys are young, sexy, muscular and very well-defined. You'll find no body fat here. Most of his models are very good-looking with just a few exceptions. This is a small book with mostly colored shots and a few black & white images. It's about the same size as his other book "Sex Machine: Euros 17". In fact, some of the same models from "Sex Machine" are included in this new book in new poses. There are a few nude frontals but most are shown posing in briefs. The lighting, the mood, and the serious look of the models gives this whole book a lurid feel, quite sexy and pornographic.
Lalli has a way of getting across in his male images a feeling of extreme sexiness, that I don't think any other photographer has been able to accomplish like he has. This book is not as edgy or dramatic as his first book, Fun ? Game: Male Models After Dark , but that's all right. What we have with "Sex Machine" and "Kool Dudes" is just as sexy, a little less edgy, but stunning in it's presentation of what a creative photographer can do when challenged with photographing young men in the prime of their life. Quite an accomplishment. Recommended!
