Red Hot X: A Daring Nude Male Art Book Celebrating Redheads.

Photographer Thomas Knights Reveals Stunning New Project

Renowned photographer Thomas Knights is set to release his latest art book, Red Hot X, a bold and daring hardback coffee table book featuring nude redhead males in stunning locations worldwide.

The Red Hot project, celebrating its 10-year anniversary, has sought to challenge taboos and defy the erasure of male redhead sexuality in media. The project showcases ginger beauty through calendars, art books, and exhibitions.

A First-of-its-Kind Ginger Male Nude Art Book

Red Hot X marks the first ginger male nude art book globally, showcasing sensational boys, outrageous settings, and exhilarating storylines in three acts. Act I, shot in the Algarve, transports readers to a world of crime, hedonism, and danger. Acts II and III will be shot in the UK and US, respectively. You can back the project on Kickstarter here.

Limited Edition Print Run Supports Elton John AIDS Foundation

This 72-page glossy hardback will feature a “Greatest Hits” chapter highlighting the best nude images from the past decade. A portion of sales will benefit The Elton John AIDS Foundation, supporting HIV prevention and treatment efforts worldwide.

Thomas Knights: Championing Marginalized Representation

Knights also focused on LGBTQ+ representation, creating groundbreaking exhibitions and campaigns.

Red Hot: Changing the Landscape for Redheads and the LGBTQ+ Community
