El título Los monólogos de la vagina (Vagina monologues)
El título Los monólogos de la vagina (Vagina monologues) ha dado lugar a una considerable
cantidad de carteles y portadas que han eludido la representación del sexo femenino sustituidos por huellas labiales, la letra “V” o “{}” (pueden obtener un amplio muestrario de soluciones en google imágenes con la cadena de búsqueda vagina monologues). En la edición de tapa dura de El erotómano de Ian Gibson una cubierta troquelada con el ojo de una cerradura muestra un fragmento de un grabado irreconocible, sólo al quitar la cubierta se puede apreciar que se trata de una escena erótica. En ocasiones al pretender eludir cualquier imagen “problemática” la portada puede resultar confusa, por ejemplo The Contemporary Dictionary of Sexual Euphemisms presenta un aspecto totalmente neutro, incluso absurdo, para quien no conozca el otro significado del término collar de perlas (perl necklace).
Cuando el género es erótico/pornográfico la portada se presta a menos sutilezas. Una amplia muestra de este tipo de portadas se puede consultar en la web vintageleaze, clasificadas por géneros, sellos, ilustradores, etc. Esta es sólo una breve selección.

Inspiration: Fred Fixler

Fred Fixler founded California Art Institute (CAI) in the early 1980's just north of LA in Calabasas. Prior to that he taught at nearby Brandes Art Institute. He studied with Frank Reilly from 1947-49 at the Art Students League, during this time he was roommates with James Bama. It seems that the bulk of his illustration career was spent doing sports illustrations, and movie poster work. It has also been rumored that he did uncredited "sleaze paperback" illustrations for Brandon House in the sixties. Fixler instructed a generation of Southern California artists, including Morgan Weistling, Greg Pro, Mark Westermoe, Shawn Zents, Glen Orbik and Laurel Blechman.
I will leave you with an anecdote from Morgan Weistling"The secret to capturing the essence of what you are looking at can be found in your high school yearbook.
Fred Fixler would have us look at our high school yearbooks and find that page that has everyone in our grade standing together in one big group shot.
"Can you find yourself?" he would ask. Yes, we could.
"Can you find your friends?" Yeah.
What's the point? Well, in those photos
your head is almost the size of a pea - if not smaller! And yet, without seeing eyelashes, nostrils, pupils in the eyes, or any other details, you recognize people you haven't seen in years! Yet, most of us sit in front of a model drawing the most unimportant details and miss the simple overall shapes that form the essence of who we are observing.
Details are not the answer.
Thanks, Fred."
