Shooting
Sex
is not about photographing carnal mischief (though there is some of
that), but is instead a revealing look into the life and times and
mind of one of our generation's most fascinating photographers. At
13 x 11" it is a huge and polished production packed with
electrifying imagery from throughout Clarke's career. It includes
numerous personal shots from behind-the-scenes of his most notorious
career. But as awesome as this is, it is Clarke's writing that is so
thoroughly engaging. It is utterly revealing and written in his own
personal, provocative, and candid manner. Far from being a dry
expose on the life and times of a one who's shot a few celebrities
in the nude, this is one of the most interesting forays into the
psyche of a modern artist ever published. Shooting Sex is a
more than a printed archive of a photographer's life work, it's an
autobiographical, picture-saturated, first-hand artistic manifesto.
