From Josephine Baker's mesmerizing performances at the Folies Bergeres in Paris to enchanting Japanese prints on silk, this collection takes us on a journey through time. In one photograph captured by Walery in France during the 1920s-30s, Josephine Baker radiates allure and charisma, leaving audiences spellbound with her magnetic presence. Her performances were a celebration of sensuality and liberation, challenging societal norms of that era. Japanese prints on silk transport us to an ancient land where erotic scenes are depicted with exquisite craftsmanship. These delicate artworks unveil hidden desires and explore themes of passion and intimacy. One particular print showcases a geisha alongside a mischievous monkey, symbolizing forbidden pleasures in 19th-century Japan. The mare of Compere Pierre comes alive through an engraving and watercolor from 1800. This intriguing piece captures the essence of eroticism through its mysterious narrative, inviting viewers to unravel its secrets. Rudolf Kremlicka's paintings offer glimpses into intimate moments frozen in time. "In front of the mirror, " painted in 1926, portrays a woman lost in self-reflection while embracing her sensual nature. In contrast, "Sleep woman, " created in 1927, depicts vulnerability as she surrenders herself to dreams filled with desire. Erotisme transcends boundaries imposed by society; it is an expression that celebrates human sexuality without shame or judgment. Through these diverse forms of artistry showcased here - be it dance performances or visual masterpieces - we are reminded that exploring our desires is an essential part of being human.
