Den weiblichen Körper funktioniert der Amerikaner Scott Church zum Rohstoff und zur Leinwand seiner erotischen Ideen um. So entstehen faszinierend moderne Bilder, die gleichzeitig opulentes Gemälde und/oder innovative Plastik sind und die den Rahmen einer klassisch konservativen Photographie sprengen. Und dies ist schon wieder subversiv in einer Zeit, in der die erotische Kunst wieder devot und angepasst zu werden scheint und sich lieber in kommerziellen, mainstreamigen Klischees ergeht, als in echter Innovation.
