New Queer Photography
Regular price SFr. 78.00 Save SFr. -78.00
In recent years, a young and active queer photography scene has emerged, helped in large part by social media. Indulging their desire for self-presentation, affirmation, and reflection, many photographers portray male homosexuality in particular as a private idyll. At the same time, they shine a critical light on their own and society’s approach to transsexuality and gender roles and expose the corrupting but also affirmative power of pornography.
Films, series, and mainstream cultural appropriation suggest that society has largely embraced queer lifestyles. However, a number of documentary photographers provide evidence that being gay or lesbian can still lead to marginalization, isolation, stigmatization, and violence in certain countries and communities. Their works also take the regime of sexuality itself into account and show that many bans on same-sex contact have colonial origins.
This carefully researched and richly designed book introduces around 40 contemporary photographic positions, including those of well-established photographers as well as plenty of unknown and less well-known talent.
With texts by Ben Miller from Schwules Museum Berlin.

Bildrausch – Walter Pfeiffer
Regular price SFr. 78.00 Save SFr. -78.00BILDRAUSCH. DRAWINGS 1966 – 2018
Walter Pfeiffer ist als Fotograf mittlerweile weltberühmt. Das zeichnerische Werk des Künstlers kennen freilich nur wenige, dabei begann Pfeiffer seine künstlerische Laufbahn als Zeichner. Das Buch bietet einen überfälligen Überblick über sein zeichnerisches Schaffen, das in einem reichen Dialog mit seinen fotografischen Arbeiten steht. In den frühen 1970er-Jahren schuf Pfeiffer grossformatige, hyperrealistische Bleistiftzeichnungen, die auch Ausgangspunkt seines fotografischen Schaffens waren, da er dafür Vorlagen brauchte. In diesem Stil entstanden freie Arbeiten, aber auch Pfeiffers legendäre Poster für das Zürcher Filmpodium, Zeitschriftenillustrationen und Auftragsportraits. Ab den 1980ern und vor allem in den 90er-Jahren, als Pfeiffer vorübergehend das Fotografieren aufgab, folgten Zeichnungen in Tusche, Farbstift und Wasserfarben, in denen das elegante, freie Spiel der Linien und Farben in den Vordergrund tritt – intime Portraits von schönen Jungs und engen Freundinnen, Stillleben und Blumenbilder. Sie sind geprägt von Heiterkeit und wacher Sinnlichkeit, sicherem Strich und dem Oszillieren zwischen zeichnerischer Reduktion und der Lust an ornamentaler Fülle. Das Buch ist kein konventioneller Werkschau-Band, sondern ein eigenständiges Künstlerbuch, das den Zeichnungen ihre Lebendigkeit und die Betrachter einen neuen Walter Pfeiffer entdecken lässt.

Jeremy Kost is a photographer celebrated for his tireless chronicling of gender and sexuality. Isolated But Not Alone is his first monograph dedicated to images of men since 2014. While Jeremy has attracted an audience of close to half a million followers to his Instagram account in that time, exhibitions and books are the only way to view his uncensored art work in it’s full glory.Contrast is distilled. The paint acts as a high-contrast punch against the muted and dreamlike tone of the original Polaroid.
The work is in part a result of a fascination and experiment with color theory, reflected in the tone, light, and contrast of the paint in relation to the images. It also calls to mind the artistic debate of figure and ground—the landscape is almost an equal partner in Kost’s work. Rather than disguise or obscure, paint brings both the figure and landscape of the original image into sharper relief, while repeating the conversation of figure/ground again with paint to Polaroid.
Whether staring back at the camera or captured at a distance, the men in Kost’s work exude a true sense of intimacy. They offer a canvas for our own projections and fantasies. The paint fractures the image, almost puncturing a reverie, reminding us of the vulnerability of that moment and inviting us in while also keeping us at a distance.
In addition, the book contains a new poem by actor/poet Nico Tortorella and a conversation with Drew Sawyer, photo curator at the Brooklyn Museum. Isolated But Not Alone is an essential collectible for fans of Kost’s work and an illuminating introduction to his work for new audiences.
