2.0 out of 5 stars DULL, February 12, 2001

By 

MOVIE MAVEN (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pornegrafik (Pornographic) (Hardcover)

Yes, we've all heard what hard work (no pun intended) making porn films is---that is a difficult job to remain excited and involved while the cameras are rolling. We've also heard about, and seen the evidence of, drugs in the world of porn. But who would have thought that the porn industry would prove as dull as work on a conveyer belt? Probst's book shows us this boredom in his, otherwise, excellent photographs. The story by A. M. Homes which serves as the book's introduction is merely pretentious.

5.0 out of 5 stars Desire, Art, and Porn, July 21, 2003

This review is from: Pornegrafik (Pornographic) (Hardcover)

In this "postmodern" age, the art-porn work of Ken Probst mixes "high" (art) and "low" (porn) in beautifully provocative ways. this book of art/porn will suprise and delight the senses -- the sight of the flesh and the touch of the glossy pages. All of the images leave the viewer wanting more, which is a good thing ... it produces desire ... I want more, always more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Probst's Look at Pornography, December 16, 1999

By 

James Levendos (Astoria, NY) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pornegrafik (Pornographic) (Hardcover)

Ken Probst's take on the porn industry is fresh, fascinating and funny. Not your typical photo-documentary book. This book is filled with the awkward moments and mechanics involved in making pornographic films, as seen by Probst's ironic eye. Well worth it.
