Richard Prince protegée Naomi Harris releases and signs her new photography tome, America Swings, which proves that small-town values can look especially good naked: the book depicts couples and groups of mainstream-seeming Americans engaged in the swinging lifestyle. The images have an operatic panache and intimate deference that convey an unself-consciously joyful sexuality — these friends and neighbors radiate natural happiness with a cozy, heartland style. Tonight, Harris is likely more smartly dressed than in the mere shoes and tool belt she often wore while taking these jaw-dropping photographs, the better to gain the trust of her subjects.
