Without question this new volume from Kingdome 19 is one of the best gay erotic photograph books we've ever seen. The collection consists of superb tinted duotone photographs of naked, mostly hard men that have been altered by Kingdome 19 with amazing overlays. Check out the photo gallery to get a feeling of the treats in store for you. Many of the models are world-class porn stars, all of them are studs. Some of the models included are: Spike, Joe Landon, Kofi Amoah, Damion, Adam Killian, Thom Barron, Rafael Carreras, Alex Tan, Riley Porter and many more.
"Universal" is the result of a highly creative project between two very different German artists.
Kingdome 19's photographs have held an important position in the world of erotic photography for years. What makes his work so special is the graphical interpretation of the photographic image and its further development into a work of art breaking all boundaries.
Henning von Berg has made a name for himself in the photography scene ove many years. His scandalous "Reichstag Rascals" series in which he photographed a group of 6 naked men in the Berlin Parliament caused an international sensation and is currently being shown around tehe world. His specialty is combining bodies and buildings.
This 2002 collaboration is their first. Kingdome 19 took Henning von Berg's distinctive images and crafted them in the darkroom using multiple exposures, strange, graphical methods and ancient scripts and hieroglyphs. The results, we're sure you'll agree, are unique and almost sacred in their love of the erect male form.

Grady Harp wrote on 08/04/2010:
UNIVERSAL is a successful collaborative effort between Kingdome 19 (the well known carpenter/graphic artist turned photographer) and Henning von Berg (an equally well known architectural engineer turned photographer), both artists from Germany and both highly respected in Europe and now the USA. Their subject matter is the male nude and their similarities are their focus on non-studio settings and on their brave depiction of the aroused male.
From von Berg's vast collection of photographs, Kingdome 19 re-worked many in his developing room, adding graphic details, works, markings, and other artistic elements, enhancing von Berg's sometimes static works immensely. But the book also shares many of Kingdome 19's own photographs, all presented in sepia toning, all with some degree of handcrafted manipulation to enhance the artistic aspect of the finished product, and all sensually beautiful in the casual manner in which he shares his models' willingness to be totally free with their posing.
As the art world (since Mapplethorpe) has matured more and more to the point that male nudity, and even aroused male images, is becoming more accepted. Certainly at the top of the list of brave photographers is the always exciting work of Kingdome 19. This book contains nearly 150 images that are strong and challenging. Another fine book from Bruno Gmunder Verlag GmbH. Grady Harp
