Hardcover2025 - Retro Edition - Collective

About #hardcover2025

Welcome to #hardcover2025, the next chapter in the journey that started in 2019 with its first volume.

In the spirit of fighting censorship of the nipple on social media, we will again gather 120 artists and collect a plethora of previously unseen and unpublished erotic art.

This new edition focuses on the theme of “retro.” The definition would be "bringing back something that used to be in style," and that can look different in each case. We intentionally kept the topic fairly generalized to allow for some flexibility. 

About the Retro Edition

This special Retro Edition features 112 additional pages, bringing the total to 272 pages full of erotic art. The extra pages contain sketches and unseen art, but they also include more material from the artists that is unrelated to the retro topic. The book has the A4 format (297 x 210 mm / 11.69 × 8.27 inches) and boasts a unique design, featuring a cover wrapped in hammered black metal, hot foil stamping, and pink edges, which makes it a premium book for collectors and retro enthusiasts.
