Presented as a cohesive \"illustrated volume,\" these pieces evoke the processes and protagonists of longing, expressing a spectrum of body language and ecstasy, both restrained and uninhibited. Whether well-known or emerging, all contribute a singular voice centered on one of life's most profound emotions—desire.\n\nThe eighty-five works explore themes from romantic yearning to eroticism and sexual obsession, with artists like Araki and Mapplethorpe exemplifying contrasting perspectives on the photographic sexual image, highlighting art's role in embodying and giving form to this complex, powerful emotion.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eOut of Print.
