“Philosophy in the Boudoir” Redux
filed under: Retrosexual, We Make Art Not Sex by Melissa Gira
Artist Tomer Hanuka has been commissioned to create the cover art for a new Penguin Classics edition of the Marquis de Sade’s Philosophy in the Boudoir, Or, The Immoral Mentors.
On his process:
Since the cover included a back cover and two flaps there was lots of space to build a rounded atmosphere. the back cover is essentially the ‘later’ of the front, the front flap showcases an evil looking chandelier and the back flap has an excited horse. hoping i could get away with something slightly outrages I had the back flap and back cover create a suggestive bestiality situation that was quickly cleaned up when the horse got circumcised to the client’s request…
A gorgeously huge version here.
