    Sex And Horror: The Art Of Emanuele Taglietti.
  

*by J***� on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 February 2020*

The first volume in a series from Korero Press that currently consists of three volumes on different Italian artists.The title (and cover illustration) pretty much gives away the content; this volume showcases the rather more lurid work of graphic illustrator Emanuele Taglietti; I knew little about Taglietti till I picked this up, but his work has apparently been mistaken (and miss-attributed) to his compatriot Allesandro Bifignandi – an artist I do know about and the subject of volume two in the series.As one would expect, the work presented here appeared on magazine and book jackets through the 70s and 80s; there's no explicit sex, but plenty of sadomasochism, implied torture and violence all reproduced in glorious colour – with the original artwork as the main panel and a smaller illustration as it appeared on the published cover.The few available pictures in the product page blurb above give a fair impression of the content.A couple of short texts and some accompanying comments on some pieces or series provide useful commentary and context.A book that will no doubt be of interest to graphic artists and anyone into pulp fiction illustration – at the time of writing this the book has just been re-printed so grab it while it is available at an affordable price.

    Loved it

It is all a little on one theme though but I still enjoyed this collection. I love this style of Italian artwork (as well as Spanish etc) and so it is a pleasure to get a collection of many of covers to books and magazines that are nigh on impossible to collect in the UK (ok, you can find some but they are very expensive). Really glad I got this volume as well as the other two in the series and looking forward to the fourth volume

A look at the work of Emanuele Taglietti, a comic book cover artist known for his artwork in the 1970's and 1980's. Emanuele Taglietti painted more than 500 covers for such books as Zora the Vampire, Sukia, Mafia, and 44 Magnum. Taglietti was one of most outstanding artists of the golden age of Italian comics - crime and horror were his specialties. His work, overflowing with violence and eroticism, is both eye-catching and unforgettable.One of the key players, and perhaps the most important, of the Italian erotic comic movement was Emanuele Taglietti. The pulp comics of the ‘70s were marked out by their beautiful, bold and often confrontational covers rather than the content inside.The book opens with an impassioned foreword from collector and artist Mark Alfrey, who discusses how history has forgotten Taglietti, with many of his works sadly credited to some of his contemporaries instead. Leading on to a revealing portrait of the artist, enabling those in the dark to familiarise themselves with his work; summarising his journey as an artist, from working as an art director in the flourishing Italian film industry, most notably with Fellini, to working from home as a comic covers artist and, more recently, painting murals and landscapes.The book is centred on Taglietti's work for Italian publisher Edifumetto (they had a big share of the market for erotic, fantasy, and horror themed comics). The images offer a captivating look at Italian pulp art, particularly the paradigm shift from the '70's concerning sex and nudity, and how by the '80's everything was up-for-grabs. By the end of the '70's, the risqué covers had descended into out-and-out pornography and ultimately came off second best up against home video. Rape, torture, sadism, bestiality, necrophilia, and even tentacles get a look-in.Inevitably, the '80's proved far more explicit and violent and the covers had to cater to the change in taste with more blood to hold consumer attention.Certainly not for everyone, but an interesting collection of pop art/culture.
