Contact High (PICTUREBOX)

This book harkens back to the halcyon days of photographer and filmmaker Richard Kernâ€™s youth. Edited by Jesse Pearson, editor of Nudity Today and Apology Magazine, Contact High couldnâ€™t have a simpler premise--itâ€™s all about naked girls smoking weed. This cheeky and playful collection of portraits recalls a time in Kernâ€™s life when, he says, â€œI spent a lot of time with my friends smoking pot, listening to music, running around in the woods and sometimes swimming naked. Back then, when I was around a naked girl, weed was either about to be smoked or had been smoked.â€ In 1999, Kern met a model in Los Angeles who reminded him of the girls he used to smoke with back in North Carolina. So, seizing the moment, he â€œwent down to Charleston to shoot her at her house and in the swamps around there. Her ambition at 18 years old was to open a head shop. She had a small gro-lite farm in her bedroom.â€ This carefree and sexy series of images from 1999 to the present is charged with an atmosphere of freewheeling, optimistic hedonism. Readers will undoubtedly get a real buzz from the beauty and sensuality of the images--perhaps tinged with a bittersweet hint of nostalgia for the sexy abandon of their own carefree youth.
