Beschreibung:

Text in German. Foreword by Yannis Tsarouchis, text by Ilias Petropoulos. With 68 illustrations from nudes by Pavlos Moschidis. Cloth with lettering stamped in red. Signed with initials by Ilias Petropoulos with a drawing of the Greek flag. Inscribed to filmmaker Paul Gray "To a great Artist and a huge soul * Paul Gray * with much love ΗΠ". Ilias (sometimes Elias) Petropoulos (Greek: Ηλίας Πετρόπουλος; 1928-2003) was a Greek author, folklorist and urban historian. A self-described "urban anthropologist," he wrote on aspects of Greek life that were rarely considered objects of serious study, including the subcultures, slangs, and music of homosexuals, drug users, and criminals. Some of his books were regarded as immoral during the rule of the Greek military junta of 1967-74, resulting in fines and jail terms and ultimately in his decision to leave Greece to live permanently in France. Pavlos Moschidis was a twentieth century French-educated Greek artist who also studied in Italy under Gino Severini
