A selection of the collection of photos of “sexual graffiti”, which Gilles-Henri started to take in 1997 and still continues today. The drawings on the walls nearly all represent male sexual organs, we can read in a text also by POLGE, in both English and French, which begins by quoting Pablo PICASSO: “Without photography, although graffiti has always existed, it might as well npot have?”. Other quotes, only in French by Robert DESNOS, Antoni TÀPIES, André PIEYRE DE MANDIARQUES and Joris-Karl HUYSMANS. Also an index with the place and date of each photo. This book is the result a direct collaboration between a designer – Hikari MACHIGUCHI – and the photographer.
