The stuff of erotic dreams

3rd May 2025

During the 1930s the Czech surrealist Jindřich Štyrský, today’s new artist, was way ahead of the pack when it came to erotic photomontage, with his Erotic Review creations and his edgy Emilie Comes to me in Dreams. See Štyrský’s remarkable work now by clicking here.

Impossibilities

1st May 2025

‘I strive to make pictures no one has ever seen before.’ The result is Van Arno’s surrealist creations in which naked gods and goddesses frolic with characters from history (even Olive Oyl makes an appearance). Arno is today’s new artist – see his work now by clicking here.

Firkin hell!

Reclaiming the erotic

25th April 2025

A distinctive blend of accomplished technique, eroticism, and emotional complexity, that’s today’s new artist, Lisa Yuskavage. She uses the tropes of pin-up art and softcore imagery to critique those conventions in her paintings, which you can explore by clicking here.

Orgy!

23rd April 2025

Writhing piles of interpenetration, mountains of copulation, countless couplings, bacchanalia central – Walter Battiss’s idea of Fook Island heaven. See this freedom-loving South African artist’s work now – he’s today’s new addition – by clicking here.

Technicolour flesh …

21st April 2025

Elizabeth Glaessner’s paintings are bold and powerful, with a constant theme of surreal entwined bodies and limbs, but are they in the slightest degree erotic? We think so, how about you? See her work now by clicking here.

Tied up in knots

19th April 2025

Shoji Oki is one of the most talented and imaginative of late twentieth century erotic shunga artists, specialising in the specifically Japanese form of bondage known as shibari or kinbaku. He’s today’s new artist, and you can see his work now by clicking here.

The limit of limits?

17th April 2025

The sado-masochistic work of Joseph Farrel probably raises more issues about including him in an ‘honest erotica’ resource than almost any other artist, and it is not without misgivings that we have chosen to include him. Let us know what you think. You’ll find our collection of Farrel’s work by clicking here.

Dark

14th April 2025

There’s only one word to describe the work of today’s new artist, Raphaël Freida – dark. Maybe it was in his nature, maybe his experiences in the first world war, but his choice of subject – oppression, betrayal, torture – is very powerful. See it now by clicking here.
