Gayface
AU$100 Read MoreAdd to cartAsh Kolodner
Seattle: Lucia Marquand, 2023.“From 2011 to 2015, Ashley Kolodner travelled across the United States photographing hundreds of LGBTQIA+ individuals of all ages. She made two consecutive portraits of each of her subjects, photographing them twice during the same sitting: once with eyes closed and then with eyes open. Through more than 180 colour portraits, along with subject interviews, this title reflects the beauty, intimacy and sometimes the pain of a community kept in the shadows for decades. Includes contributing texts by filmmaker Kimberly Peirce and Tony award-winning producer Jordan Roth. These diptychs symbolise the vulnerability many have felt at the outset of discovering their personal identities, and then the realisation and self-actualisation manifest in the intimate and profound process of coming out. Ultimately these pictures and this handsome volume represent a revelatory statement on the profound humanity we all s hare.” (publisher’s blurb)

Peter Berlin: Icon, Artist, Photosexual
AU$900 Read MoreAdd to cartPeter Berlin
[Bologna]: Damiani, 2019.One of 50 copies of the deluxe edition with a signed and numbered silver gelatin photograph by Berlin housed in the publisher’s original mailing carton. “Featuring the work of Berlin along with images by Tom of Finland, Robert Mapplethorpe, and Andy Warhol, Peter Berlin: Icon pays tribute to the man who in the early to mid-1970s revolutionized the landscape of gay male eroticism and became an international sensation. His self-portrait photography graced the covers of gay magazines, and defined a look that re-imagined a new masculinity among gay men and an emerging gay male culture. Peter Berlin was a self-created. Tailoring his own clothes to accentuate an already naturally defined physique, every part of his anatomy became showcased. Cruising was his career, and with a background in photography, Peter embarked on recording thousands of self-portraits. The book is edited by Michael Bullock is a writer and publisher of BUTT, Pin-Up, Fantastic Man, Gentlewoman, and Apartamento magazines.” (publisher’s blurb)

Gymnaisum
Read MoreLuke Smalley
Santa Fe: Twin Palms Publishers, 2001.Photobook of teenage boy athletes from northwestern Pennsylvania. “Boys will be boys is the remark very frequently made when boys become unusually boisterous, or give vent ot their desire for violent activity. Not infrequently this remark is made from a derogatory standpoint, as though there was something innately evil in the character of the average boy. But we should remember that boys who are willing to sit and mope for hours, who pore over their studies for long periods without complaint, who have but little desire to be a boy, do not usually amount to much in life. It is the boys who have snap and vim and energy, those who have a plentiful supply of ginger, that accomplish results of importance. It is the Boys-will-be-boys kind of a boy that is really worth talking about. Boys of this sort often get the reputation of being bad when they really posses the opposite characterists.” (from introduction)

Gay International Volume I. No. 12, January 1965
Read MoreRobert Maynard [Robert Mish Marsden]
Toronto: Gay Publishing Co., 1965.Single issue of the pre-Stonewall Canadian gay tabloid, from a short run of only fifteen issues published between 1964 and 1966. This issue marks new owner Robert Mish Marsden’s assumption of full editorial control, under the pseudonym of Robert Maynard, and is the first to appear under the redesigned and expanded title, Gay International. Conceived for large-scale news-stand distribution in the United States, issue twelve introduced an enlarged staff and scope, including the inaugural New York Scene column. Despite ambitious distribution, sales were limited and the publication was under severe financial strain by issue fourteen. A final reinvention followed for the fifteenth issue which was ready for publication upon Marsden’s arrest in January 1966, folding soon thereafter. Gay is recognised as Canada’s first gay tabloid and is among the earliest periodicals internationally to employ the word gay explicitly and unapologetically in its title, marking a decisive shift in pre-Stonewall homosexual print culture.

Tom of Finland: The Official Life and Work of a Gay Hero
Read MoreTom of Finland; F. Valentine Hooven III
New York: Cernunnos, 2020.“Tuoko Laaksonen, also known as Tom of Finland (1920-1991), was an iconic and provocative artist who rose to cult status in the international gay community and beyond for his work celebrating gay archetypes and masculinity during a time when being gay was taboo. Created in partnership with the Tom of Finland Estate, Tom of Finland: The Official Life and Work of a Gay Hero is a beautifully detailed visual biography full of never or rarely seen documents from his archive. The text was completed just a few months before the death of the artist and was fully approved by him-making this book the only 100% approved biography of this gay legend responsible for creating the muscled, mustachioed gay archetype of the 1960s and ’70s.” (publisher’s blurb)
