Not many books encapsulate both the 80s and sex like this book. Captured by a photographer who lived and loved this movement at the ti in. NEw York. Boas appears in several occasions throughout these photos, in particular, in three chapters dedicated to three of his partners. These sex industry professionals were in part his friends, at least a world that Boas knew relatively well, and to some extent this is also a personal story. His approach could be part of a type of photography that privileges an intimate perspective, similar to Nan Goldin’s work.
