Book Reviews of Motel Fetish (Photobook)

Book Review: Black garters, ugly lamps & tacky carpets!
Summary: 4 Stars

Motel Fetish is an illusion - a suggestive, seductive, fake place. Here, a corner of a Columbus, Ohio photographer's studio is transformed into a technicolor pocket of hypnotic sleaze that has a resonance all of us can identify and none of us can explain. There's a touch of what you like about Betty Page in Kryder's work but there's deliberate stillness in the models that is enigmatic, interesting. You are slumming on the naughty frontier when you visit Motel Fetish; stumbling about a thirty five dollar room, knocking over lamps with a girdle-and-stocking bad girl when you should be looking for a job.

Motel Fetish is a Taschen product and fans of their offerings will know what to expect. Some of these photos were on Kryder's Website, many were not. Since the book was issued the Website has slimmed down a bit and some of the choicest pictures from there didn't make it to the book. Esoteric erotica is subjective stuff but for this reviewer there could have been a better selection of images from the Website as many images in the book are substantially the same thing. I bought Motel Fetish looking for visual variety in a dull world. I found that in spades and I'm hooked and impatient for more.
