Did you know Joyce Vincent?

She wasn’t an alcoholic. She didn’t smoke. She didn’t take drugs. So how is it possible that Joyce Vincent lay dead in her apartment for three years before anyone noticed? Especially since everything about her was exotic, beautiful, and immaculate. Dreams of a Life is a docu-drama that paints an imaginary portrait intertwined with interviews of the real-life people who knew Joyce Vincent before she died unnoticed in her London flat. Unfortunately, we won’t get to see Dreams of a Life anytime soon as it is only playing in the UK. Hopefully it will make it to the US by film festival season.

Picture Books

Sometimes called the Hugh Hefner of gay publishing for his pioneering magazine, Bob Mizer influenced figures in art and society in similar ways as Hef, from David Hockney to California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who modeled for Mizer in 1975. Bob's World: The Life and Boys of AMG's Bob Mizer is the first book to celebrate the full color, uninhibited second half of Bob Mizer's career. Over 250 vivid photos are accompanied by an oral history, with contributing artists David Hockney, Jack Pierson and John Sonsini, photographers David Hurles and Hal Roth, models Ben Sorensen and Andrew Sears, and Wayne Stanley. The book includes a one-hour DVD of Mizer films, spanning 1958 to 1980, specially edited for this edition.For more information click here

Jay Diers is at it again! The young photographer from Iowa took a chance looking into American motel rooms and surprises us anew with unusually intimate, warm-hearted and yet in-your-face portraits. The bored farm boys of the American Midwest seem as if they've just been waiting for their chance to finally show themselves to the world! And so they pose, beguile with their young bodies and seem to be saying just one thing - "Take me!" But the photos never seem blatant or exploitative thanks to Diers' respectful and dignified handling of his models. This is a magnificent portrait of American youth! For more information click here
Seldom has a photographer created such an authentic work as Jack Slomovits has in this book. From the middle of the sexual action the artist captures us from the first photos onward. Slomovits' semi-documentary style leaves little to the imagination; high-contrast detailed photos are interspersed with portraits in a snapshot aesthetic. His protagonists are the lads of the West Village in New York, lads of impressive naivety and tantalizing innocence. A fast book from a fast city. Sexy! For more information click here
