Sex Magic: Ithell Colquhoun's Diagrams of Love by Amy Hale

$28.00

A unique body of work and a radical contribution to the magical conversations of the period, this exquisitely illustrated book provides an introduction to Ithell Colquhoun’s enigmatic series of paintings, drawings, and poems: Diagrams of Love. Exploring her blend of alchemical, Kabbalistic, and Tantric imagery, and placed within the context of theories of sex magic extant in the occult subcultures of the early 20th century, this beautiful little book of erotic art and poetry is one to treasure.

Dr. Amy Hale (PhD Folklore UCLA) is an Atlanta based writer, curator, and critic, ethnographer and folklorist, speaking and writing about magic, art, culture, women and Cornwall in various combinations.
