Bernard Arcand: The Power of Modesty
and the Modesty of Power. The Nude
Pictures of Prince Henrik
This article argues that pomography requires
modesty almost as much as nudity, in order
to piease its audience by adding to the spectacle
of sex some feeling of conquest. Modesty
appears as a primary notion at the root of
social life: from the book of Genesis, when
Adam and Eve express shyness, to the teachings
of the Touareg on the proper use of the
veil and to the recent surge of so-called
“amateur pomography”. Modesty translates
how others become fascinating and
attractive, an obvious pre-requisite for Creative
interaction.
