Fresh

by Dave Naz (Photographer), Matthew Gleason (Introduction)

The mystique of the young girl receives a sustained erotic performance of innocence and sexual frankness in Fresh. Naz compounds the intensity through a tight range of setups, that enables these adult women, who exude the Lolita type, to playfully suggest or display their sexual allure. We may all be advanced enough to know that Lolita is not as entirely innocent as she and half of society would have you believe. Dave Naz has gathered an eclectic mix of candidates to complete your Lolita fantasy or confirm your certainty over its debasing potency. The narrative in your mind heats up when you discover her. ... a true southern California artist. His sexy imagery is casual without pretense. When one looks beyond the surface, the work is seen as much a cultural artifact giving clues to the sexual identities and persona of our time. -- Chas Ray Krider

Reviews

[Tosh · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another 'smutty' book by Los Angeles' smut king Dave Naz. The very title is provocative and it's a hard one (no pun intended) to bring up to the cash register. Yet, I can't think of anything more 'Southern California' than this book. All the picture locations and the girls themselves scream out the sunshine state. So in a sense the book is also about location, and how location feeds the fantasy. When I hear the two words "Southern California" I think of this book.
