The questions of pornography will always be present around this type of work. Whether you are on the side of the critique, labeling Hamilton’s work as pornography, even child pornography – or you are on the side of the admirers, who claim the artist introduced new standards of beauty and allowed the viewers to see nude female figure in a different way than those provided by the magazines like Playboy. One thing is for certain, David Hamilton’s work has left none indifferent.
