Erotic portraits from the international Art-
and Queerscene. Many celebrities, Artists, Models,
Pop- and Pornstars. Glamourous, partly outrageous
sexual, very picturesque photographs.
"Hopfs photographs captivate with their intensive
colours, extraordinary sceneries and evade
themselves in their intensitiy and immediacy
conventional attributions - they are subversive.
Partly outrageous sexual, these pictures let the
viewer immerse into a glamourous world of
irritating beauty, which Hopf develops through his
eyes. Without words this book tells Love- and
Lifestories of individuals who offend against rules
and gives direct insights into a diverse and
creative reality." (M.Malinowski)

There
were often famous people, celebrities, and the
first impression of surprise was, that these people
allowed to be portrayed like this", fastly
gave way to the calm implicitness that these
pictures emulate. This was a mixture of polaroid
snapshot and accurate arrangement, it is exactly
balanced, and that causes this special tension. The
portrayed people are young, old, fat, slim,
elegant, bizarre, normal, odd but never exploited,
never really exposed, always self-confident and
very present." Ralf König, comic-strip
artist.
