Madonna edited her album in 1992 'Erotica', a work in which we could see her whip in hand acting as a dominant mistress in the video that accompanied the first single of that work, also titled 'Erotica'. The images of that video clip resonated for better and for worse everywhere, since Madonna's companions were not exactly unknown models: Naomi Campbell, rapper Vanilla Ice or actor Udo Kier among others signed up to live situations of total debauchery with the singer.
From all that tidal wave that was the video clip of 'Erotica' came out 'SEX', a book of photographs that seemed to be the enlargement in great detail of what we had already seen in 'Erotica'. Steven Meisel was the photographer who was in charge of the book. But it has been now, 23 years after that premiere, that 51 discarded photographs of those sessions made for the book 'SEX' have come to light.
Meanwhile, Madonna, continues with the promotion of his recently released 'Rebel Heart', demonstrating after filtering these photos that his being a rebellious heart is something that has always come from him.
