Do beautiful men fall victim to the virgin/whore dichotomy or does their masculinity protect them from this reduction?
from the series On Beauty

Pictures from the opening of my solo show, ‘The New Masculine’ up till Nov. 6 in Soho, New York.

Gracias to everyone who came out and shared the night with me; my partner and collaborator Consuelo, my stunning models, my talented printer Ben Diep and Young at Color Space Imaging, to Eric at General Art for the glass in a flash. Thank you to my sister for taking pictures for me, and to everyone who came to the opening, ya’ll are the best. 

Join me Tuesday, October 12 for the opening of my solo exhibition at Leslie/Lohman Gallery. I will be showing 8 large scale prints from two series– both of which are primarily concerned with gender and aesthetics. Currently on view at TASCHEN Gallery, Modern Dandy ‘converges traditional elements of fashion photography with fine art portraiture. My newest series On Beauty questions the representation of masculinity as a monolith of unwavering strength choosing instead to look at the loveliness, receptivity and vulnerability of men.
