Orgasm XL is the second collection of explicit pictures by Tony Ward. While Tony Ward has shown his tamer work in galleries and museums, his more explicit shots have not had such a wide exposure for obvious reasons. These shots, even more than the soft core images that defined the most recent years of his career, strip sexual photography of its hypocritical sense of Hardcore cannot be art and bring to the front the sexual in all its explicitness. It is rather in the search for texture, in the nuances of models' expressions, in the delicate directing of extreme fantasies that these images which should never be seen are composed to be offered to our gaze with a beauty and innocence that we have been taught to deny. Tony Ward does not shrink from explicitness and cannot separate it from its practice of photography. It is with this honesty that he offers this new collection of sexual images.
