From simple titillation to hardcore representations, erotic have a long history of incorporating scandal, fantasy, provocation and fun in sex.
In recent years, the erotic theme has grown into a potent, dynamic and, sometimes, subversive form of art, worthy of academic investigation. Sexual encounters, acts and characters that cannot exist on reality and are constrained only by the illustrator’s imagination. For some, even the creation of erotic work is an experience sexually charged, particularly if the sexual fantasy is in some way inaccessible on reality. As Tom from Finland famously said, “If I don’t have an erection when I’m doing a drawing, I know it’s no good.” Whether mass-produced or created as individual works of art, erotic images are a reflection of society and unabashed sexual fantasy, where every sexual act ever performed or imagined exists.
