Andrès Serrano, born August 15, 1950 in New York, is a contemporary American photographer known mainly for his photos and body portraits. Provocative and classic, religious and blasphemy: the apparent incompatibility of opposites has always been present in the artistic work of Andrès Serrano.The symbol of his 30-year career is said to be the controversial Piss Christ, the subject of intense criticism and vandalism around the world. One of New York's most famous works of art, it depicts a crucifix immersed in a barrel of urine, symbolizing the ambivalent relationship between the sacred and the infamous.The artist's interest is not only about religion but also about sex, death, guns, the Ku Kux Klan and so many others. Characterized by an almost classic style, strongly influenced by the strong colors and still lifes of 16th and 17th century painting, Serrano impresses the eyes and the mind with his simple and overwhelming vision of reality and the mechanisms that regulate it.

Cute girls, summer, sunshine, tanned skin and a tiny scrap of fabric. This book introduces you to photographer and bikini designer Mathias Angelov, who has put together a unique volume of photos featuring the most erotic bikinis you have ever seen! The daring bikinis of this cheeky textile saver scoff at prudishness with brightly coloured transparent fabrics that become nearly invisible when wet. These swimsuits highlight the very places that a wisp of textile typically conceals: skin-tight hot pants with a central seam that beautifully conforms to the contours of a shaved vulva, brazen thongs that vanish between curvaceous buttocks, and postage-stamp-sized tops from which something almost always slips out.
