It started in 1978 with an ordinary coffee shop near Kyoto. Word spread that the waitresses wore no panties under their miniskirts. Similar establishments popped up across the country. Men waited in line outside to pay three times the usual coffee price just to be served by a panty-free young woman. Within a few years, a new craze took hold: the no-panties "massage" parlor. Increasingly bizarre services followed, from fondling clients through holes in coffins to commuter-train fetishists. One particularly popular destination was a Tokyo club called "Lucky Hole" where clients stood on one side of a plywood partition, a hostess on the other. In between them was a hole big enough for a certain part of the male anatomy. Taking the Lucky Hole as his title, Nobuyoshi Araki captures Japan's sex industry in full flower, documenting in more than 800 photos the pleasure-seekers and providers of Tokyo's Shinjuku neighborhood before the February 1985 New Amusement Business Control and Improvement Act put a stop to many of the country's sex locales. Through mirrored walls, bed sheets, the bondage and the orgies, this is the last word on an age of bacchanalia, infused with moments of humor, precise poetry, and questioning interjections.

Tom Wesselmann's series Sunset Nudes (2002-2004) recalls the highly provocative blondes of the earlier series. Monumental in size, the series is rooted in the magazine and billboard imagery of the sixties out of which Wesselmann's practice emerged. Wesselmann was greatly influenced by Matisse and continued the legacy of both the reclining female and the drawn line in a unique visual language that is strong and immediately identifiable.

'Quoi de nouveau sur L'Origine? L'Origine du monde est en passe de devenir, au même titre que jadis la Joconde de Léonard, une véritable icône pour l'art contemporain. La pornographie, devenue productrice inflationniste des images du sexe, constitue l'autre versant, non artistique, du stock d'images actuellement disponible. On verra donc bien souvent dans la confrontation, polémique ou non, implicite ou délibérée, de ces deux imaginaires, le lieu incertain dans lequel il conviendra de situer leur pratique. Si l'histoire du tableau de Courbet se confond avec une certaine histoire du regard masculin, histoire dans laquelle, s'il ne la clôt pas, se situe encore Marcel Duchamp, la nouveauté en ce domaine se situerait sans doute dans le renversement opéré par un certain nombre d'artistes femmes dont la démarche vise à l'appropriation, souvent charnelle, d'une représentation issue d'une mise en forme sémiotique de leur propre corps. A travers des oeuvres aussi diverses que celles de Niki de Saint-Phalle, Valie Export, Orlan, Marlene Dumas, Sarah Lucas et tant d'autres, ce qui semble visé dans cet engagement spécifique, c'est soit une mise en question polémique de tout l'agencement classique, pensé comme un dispositif de domination, soit son dépassement dans une autre mise en relation entre le masculin, le féminin, le sexe et l'art.'--Provided by publisher.

"Edouard Manet's controversial painting Le Dejeuner sur l'herbe is one of the best-known images in French art. The subject of critical analysis for more than a century, it still defies singular interpretations. This book offers six different readings of the painting. Based on new ideas about its context, production, meaning, and reception, these essays, written specially for this volume by leading scholars of French modern art, incorporate close examinations of the picture's radical style and novel subject, relevant historical developments, and archival material, as well as biographical evidence that prompts psychological inquiries. Shedding new light on the artist and the touchstone work of modernism, Manet's "Le Dejeuner sur l'herbe" also introduces readers to current methodologies in art history and to the multiple ways that this complex painting can be framed."--Jacket.
