Shot by Steven Meisel, art directed by Fabien Baron, and performed by Madonna at her most untouchable, this book is a cultural capsule of 1992: provocative, overproduced, and perfectly timed to mirror the rise of postmodern celebrity and mass-market provocation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"541\" data-end=\"1170\"\u003eWrapped in a spiral-bound aluminium shell and shrink-wrapped in Mylar, \u003cem data-start=\"612\" data-end=\"617\"\u003eSex\u003c\/em\u003e presents a saturated theatre of desire, layered with kink, irony, and the precise control of image. Its pages — featuring Naomi Campbell, Vanilla Ice, Isabella Rossellini and more — move between domination and self-performance, fantasy and farce, with Madonna as director, object, and gaze. This first edition includes the rare 8-page comic insert, a pulp gesture underscoring the book’s choreography of high and low culture. For Darwin, \u003cem data-start=\"1056\" data-end=\"1061\"\u003eSex\u003c\/em\u003e is more than scandal — it’s a keystone in the visual history of celebrity control and erotic representation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1172\" data-end=\"1707\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1172\" data-end=\"1191\"\u003eTechnical Sheet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1191\" data-end=\"1194\"\u003eTitle: Sex\u003cbr data-start=\"1204\" data-end=\"1207\"\u003eArtist \/ Author \/ Maker: Madonna, photographs by Steven Meisel, design by Fabien Baron\u003cbr data-start=\"1293\" data-end=\"1296\"\u003eDate: 1992\u003cbr data-start=\"1306\" data-end=\"1309\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eTechnique \/ Medium: Aluminium ring-bound photobook with color offset printing and comic insert\u003cbr data-start=\"1403\" data-end=\"1406\"\u003eEdition: First edition, numbered (No. 0703780)\u003cbr data-start=\"1452\" data-end=\"1455\"\u003eDimensions: 35 × 28 cm; 122 pages + 8-page comic\u003cbr data-start=\"1503\" data-end=\"1506\"\u003eCondition: As new — original aluminium cover, pages clean, comic present\u003cbr data-start=\"1578\" data-end=\"1581\"\u003eOrigin \/ Provenance: Martin Secker \u0026amp; Warburg (UK\/USA edition)\u003cbr data-start=\"1642\" data-end=\"1645\"\u003eShipping: Registered, secure shipping due to format and rarity\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DaRWIN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51769195397458,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/7058\/0818\/files\/TODWEBB_copy_copy_1_cea15ae8-2d7d-40d4-a67d-8ec00520f3d7.jpg?v=1770116985","url":"https:\/\/thedarwin.es\/products\/sex-steven-meisel-amp-madonna-1992","provider":"DaRWIN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
