Editorial Reviews
Libidomag.com review by Jack Hafferkamp, May 18, 2002
...Fakir Musafar's personal transformation from nerdy teenager to seeker of transcendental sublimity is measurable in this collection...

Book Description
The road of body modification, piercing, and mutilation is untraveled by most people, yet it holds an undeniable fascination for many. This book, the first monograph devoted to Musafar’s photography, chronicles this compelling topic in an amazing collection of 140 photographs taken by Fakir Musafar, the "father of the modern primitive movement." A world-renowned shaman, artist, master piercer, and body modifier, Musafar has devoted most of his life to the personal exploration of body decoration, photographing himself and others since the 1940s. Revealing a modernist edge, these photographs are beautifully composed and printed. Their power as images, however, resides in the intense, unexpected beauty of Musafar’s exploration of the spirit/flesh connection.
