Sofasosexy: Turning A Cheap Sofa Into An Object Of Desire

The photographs of Rankin are now quite familiar on this side of the Atlantic, steadily gaining in popularity commensurate with his appeal in europe. This latest little book is a conceptual piece, and packaged quite nicely. Take one well-worn, mid-century design-ish brown leather couch and add several girls/-one at a time/-then subtract their clothes, and mix with a camera and lights. The result is one sexy sofa. The work is mostly informed by the power of suggestion, rather than anything terribly explicit.
