Eroteme Fashion Tarot by Oleg Mitrofanov, 2011. This is conceived of as biannual publication of a tarot deck, which "aims to expand the borders of fashion by introducing style, beauty and decadence into specific and often forgotten branches of creative arts". This first issue uses the theme of opera. Each of the photographs of models posing in wonderful costumes, often with stage like makeup, are collaged with other graphic elements to present a tableaux related to a scene from a classic opera which in turn reflects the tarot imagery. It is quite a tour de force. Each of the Majors and Courts are associated with a character from an Opera. Thus, The Fool is Papageno, High Priestess is Norma, Justice relates to Turandot. The models are posed in tableaux presenting the character from an opera. The photography is by Markus Nylaander. The plan for the regular publication of tarots did not succeed, and this was their only production. 78 cards 135x80mm. Limited edition of 30 copies. Almost impossible to find.
