Heidtmann 11323. Vgl. Auer 451. The Open Book 224 f. (Beide amerik. Orig.-Ausgabe aus demselben Jahr). – Erste deutsche Ausgabe. – „Paine’s 1966 book of photographs, “Mirror of Venus,” is a classic of soft-core erotica and a sexual-revolution period piece. More than seventy-five color and black-and-white prints from that book and its several follow-ups are gathered here for Paine’s first solo exhibition, and they look charmingly innocent by today’s standards. Working with a trio of regular models, the photographer was able to achieve a sense of sweet, playful intimacy and suggest moments of sexual abandon. The work is self-consciously arty and not a little kitsch, but it never asks to be taken seriously, only enjoyed, and that’s easy“ (The New Yorker zu einer Ausstellung in der Chelsea Gallerie, New York im Jan. 2009). – Sehr schönes Exemplar.
