Aus dem Klappentext: 1989 wurde Andres Serrano von US Senator Jesse Helms beschuldigt mit Piss Christ das amerikanische Volk zu verhöhnen - hier der ultimative Gegenbeweis! Andres Serrano, umstrittener amerikanische Künstler, ist für viele in erster Linie der Mann hinter Piss Christ und Verursacher eines nationalen Skandals in Sachen staatliche Förderung kontroverser Kunst. Wer aber hinter die Schlagzeilen schaut, entdeckt den präzisen Beobachter eines Landes der Immigranten, Helden und Anti-Helden, der uns das Alltägliche auf ungewohnte Weise sichtbar macht. Seine Fotoserie Nomads, direkt nach Piss Christ entstanden, zeigt Studioporträts schwarzer Obdachloser unmittelbar neben Mitgliedern des Ku Klux Klan, A History of Sex illustriert die nahezu unendlichen Variationen des menschlichen Strebens nach körperlicher Vereinigung. Für America fotografierte er innerhalb von drei Jahren mehr als hundert Amerikaner, Archetypen einer Nation. Auf jeweils 50x60 Inches finden sich Porträts Prominenter: Arthur Miller, Snoop Dogg, Anna Nicole Smith, B.B. King, Vanessa del Rio. Darüberhinaus völlig alltägliche Begegnungen: ein Zuhälter, ein Pfadfinder, ein Arzt, ein russisch-orthodoxer Bischof. Im Ganzen eine Liebeserklärung an die kulturelle Vielfalt und die Bevölkerung der Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika. Serranos Antwort auf die Frage nach seinem (nicht exististenten) Selbstporträt: "What do you think this is? This is a self-portrait." Die zweite Hälfte der voluminösen Werkschau, Other Work, ist eine Retrospektive seiner jüngsten fotografischen Arbeiten und komplettiert das Oeuvre des Ausnahmekünstlers. - Dian Hanson hat von 1976 bis 2001 verschiedene Herrenmagazine produziert, darunter Juggs, Outlaw Biker und Leg Show, bis sie 2001 schließlich Herausgeberin der TASCHEN Sexy Books wurde.
