Attali – Delfau, Jacques. Les érotiques du regard. (Photographies de (Marc) Attali). Paris, André Balland (1968). Folio (35,2 x 27 cm.). [112] S. mit 64 Tafeln. Farbig illustr. OPbd. Auer 484. Bertolotti 194. Parr/Badger I, 226. – Erste Ausgabe. – „Les érotiques du regard (The erotics of the gaze) by Marc Attali and Jacques Delfau largely succeeds in this delicate balancing act. It is a frank meditation om the male gaze, an essay in pictures and a kind of concrete poetry where the typography has equal status with the imagery. Unlike many of the so-called erotic books from the 1960s – the ‚Free Love‘ era – Les Erotiques manages to examine the phenomenon of the male gaze, whilst at the same time doing the classically male thing of gazing. The book is full of snatched images of woman in public – on the streets and in cafés – voyeuristically focusing on their bodies – primarily legs. Yet in the context of the book the pictures declare themselves for what they are, so that the whole volume is as much self-regarding as regarding. It is a thoughtful book that concentrates on looking, yet is light-hearted and serious at one and the same time, which means that it both engages and disengages with the erootic in an interesting, thoroughly ambiguous, complex and tantalizing way“ (Parr/Badger). – Ecken am Kapital und Fuß etwas bestoßen, sehr gutes Exemplar.
