I have friends that absolutely hate Terry Richardson and I have friends that own some of his prints
He has created such a unique, bizarre psychosexual world that what can be dangerous and unfortunate are the “porn chic” copycats like Dov Charney of American Apparel that seek to create their own Terry World. The legal actions by the models against Charney speak to the pitfalls of sexual participation by a photographer. Richardson seems to have successfully excised any predatory roles in his playground games.
My rule is that I’d never ask anyone to do anything I wouldn’t do myself…that’s how it’s got to go this far. At first, I’d just want to do a few nude shots, so I’d take off my clothes, too. I’d even give the camera to the model and get her to shoot me for a while. It’s about creating a vibe, getting people relaxed and excited. When that happens, you can do anything.

[…] Personally, I admire Richardson’s apparent flair for photography, but I do believe the risque campaign for Lee Jeans took things a bit too far. I find the depiction of women as sexual objects in demeaning positions to be really offensive. Let’s also not forget the Sisley campaign featuring, er, farm animals as well. These photos are nothing compared to the rest (I tried to pick the less racier ones but you can view the rest here). […]
Amazing, thank you for putting this together!!

Mais voyant qu’on tardait, et que Rossinante
avait hate d’arriver a l’ecurie, il s’approcha de la porte, et vit les deux filles perdues qui
s’y trouvaient, lesquelles lui parurent deux belles damoiselles ou deux gracieuses dames qui,
devant la porte du chateau, folatraient et prenaient leurs ebats. http://www.sophiechassat.com
