Joan Crisol’s first photography collection fascinates with its coarse-grained aesthetic, complex coloring and sensual erotic staging – these are simply stirringly beautiful photographs. The dynamic that develops when browsing through the book is difficult to escape. Crisol’s men are masculine, striking, and although they hardly ever bear all you can still detect the fire burning just below the surface on every page. This large-format volume of 120 pages presents the impressive oeuvre of one of Spain’s most promising talents.

Spanish fashion photographer Joan Crisol has been working for internationally renowned magazines for years, like ROLLING STONE, ZERO and PLAYBOY. He was introduced to the gay audience with his contributions to the photographic anthology VISIONS published in 2006.
