Petter Hegre - 100 Naked Girls - 2009

100 Naked Girls by Norwegian photographer Petter Hegre is a provocative and intentionally erotic photography book that sits at the intersection of fine art and adult visual culture. The project is built around a simple but bold concept: one hundred nude female subjects, photographed individually, each presented with minimal distraction so that the viewer’s attention remains fully on the body and the subject’s presence. While the aesthetic is clean and controlled, the erotic charge of the images is unmistakable. Hegre does not shy away from nudity as a source of visual desire; instead, he frames it with confidence and directness. The photographs play with themes of vulnerability, self-awareness, and exhibition, creating an intimate dialogue between subject and viewer. The eroticism here is not narrative-driven but rooted in repetition, variation, and the quiet intensity of being seen. Beyond its content, 100 Naked Girls has also gained attention as a collectible photography book. Printed in limited quantities and not widely distributed through mainstream channels, it has become increasingly difficult to find over time. Copies in good condition are sought after by collectors of contemporary photography, erotic art, and Hegre’s work in particular. Its scarcity, combined with the clarity of its concept and the notoriety of its subject matter, has contributed to its status as a niche but desirable object within the photography book market. Overall, the book stands as a clear example of contemporary erotic photography that is self-aware, deliberate, and formally consistent, while also functioning as a collectible artifact tied to a specific moment in early 21st-century visual culture.
