Gay photographer

Four decades ago, the photographer Tom Bianchi began capturing the nearly 10, gay men who every summer flocked to their Eden in a specific part of New York’s Fire Island. His snapshots are.

He not only had absorbed all the institutional memory of the place, but he basically felt that he personified the Voice , which he said many times. In so doing, he developed a compelling visual identity for what became the most significant, influential, and best-selling alternative weekly of the twentieth century. McDarrah not only documented countercultural life, he also created a fabulous historical record of it; indeed, he was more than the Voice , in that his work, in a way, encapsulated the changing times.

González-Torres's openly gay sexual orientation is often seen as influential in his work as an artist. González-Torres was known for his minimal installations and sculptures in which he used materials such as strings of lightbulbs, clocks, stacks of paper, or packaged hard candies.

Another relatively unknown artist, people whose work I like promoting in this archive. I certainly had never heard of this photographer. Notice how in the photograph of the male reclining with candlestick, the form of the candlestick mimics the spidery tattoo on the hand in the photograph above.

I love photography because it involves meeting new people and touching their stories. When Michael and Eric reached out to me to photograph their vacation in Istanbul with their three young children, I was excited to spend time with this special family. The family had previously photographed in Venice, Paris, and Barcelona.
