Odiseo Volume 13 The Last Supper was born from the unlucky number 13 – Judas, the disciple who betrayed Jesus, was the 13th to sit at the table. Born from this superstition, we look at how acts of treachery in many ways define the world we live in. Cheating, deceiving, cowardice – betrayal is almost entirely born out of trust, or love. Without one, the other does not exist. Revealing secrets, breaking a pact, a stab in the back, an act of revenge. We find shelter in the shadow of disloyalty; a thrill in the fear of discovery. The concept is timeless and inherently human, present throughout our history right up to the present day.

In-between body and mind, book and magazine

Combining erotic imagery with insightful texts and crossing the boundaries between books and magazines, Odiseo defines itself as a hybrid. With Odiseo, we don’t seek to publish current normative content, but focus on the extended present, retaining the periodicity but doing away with the obsolete. This complex and contradictory nature shaped Odiseo as a small, bi-annual hardcover publication. Moving away from the tradition of magazine mass consumption, Odiseo is a publication to be appreciated and read without pressure. It deserves quality time invested into its content.

The latest edition of Jack Pierson's photobook-cum-artist's book featuring work from some of Pierson's favorite contemporary artists

The fifth volume in Jack Pierson’s celebrated Tomorrow’s Man artist’s book series mixes imagery from all spectrums of the visual landscape into a single meditation on the world around us.

Combining archival material together with contributions by emerging and established artists, Tomorrow's Man 5continues on where the earlier volumes left off. In this edition, the diverse body of art includes Dietmar Busse's enigmatic, almost occult drawings on photography, David Dupuis' delicate, colorful abstractions and Richard Tinkler's bright geometric abstractions, as well as work by Janet Stein, David Carrino, Jeff Davis, Clement Schneider, Paul Stuttman and Jordan Wolfson (now infamous for his shocking work at the 2017 Whitney Biennial Real Violence) is included alongside Pierson's own images.

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.

MEN PHOTOGRAPHING WOMEN IN THE 70S

'Men Photographing Women in the 1970s' by Michael Abramson, 96pp, paperback, pink foil, 175 x 120mm.

Once a month, in 1970s Chicago, men were allowed to take cameras into underground strip clubs. Michael Abramson, a local photographer, thought it would be more revealing to photograph the men photographing the women. Left in a drawer until now, the resulting images are a fascinating, funny and at times unsettling portrayal of the uninhibited male gaze.

Introduced by Midge Wilson.

Michael Abramson (1948-2011) was an American photographer best known for his work documenting the nightlife of black night clubs on the south side of Chicago. His photographs can be found in the permanent collections of many major American institutions including the Smithsonian, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Chicago History Museum, the California Museum of Photography and more.

This is the first edition.

Edition Issue #36

In this issue we are going to explore happiness.

The pursuit of happiness may well be the most stubborn of all human clichés. Everybody, throughout human history, has been searching for it, selling it, finding it, and losing it. 

Happiness is what keeps us humans going. What helps us forget the hardships. It distracts us from the tragedy and finiteness of life. Happiness is like the drug that keeps us alive.

Happiness changes and always depends on what situation you are in. If you are oppressed, then freedom is your biggest happiness. If you are ill, health is. If you are hungry, then food is. If you are lonely, then someone special entering your life will bring you the biggest joy.

Happiness is such a big word but is triggered by so many little things. Warm sunrays on your skin. The sound of the sea. The silence during a forest walk. A bouquet of lovely smelling spring flowers. Returning to a cozy home after a long day at work.

Once in a while we need to ask ourselves that question: Are you happy? And mostly we ask ourselves this in the moments when we are not. Maybe happiness is like our compass in life. Once in a while we need to adjust it in order to find our direction again.

The fourth volume in Jack Pierson’s celebrated Tomorrow’s Man artist book series mixes imagery from all spectrums of the visual landscape into a single mediation on the world around us. Combining archival material together with contributions by emerging and established artists, Tomorrow’s Man 4 continues on where the earlier volumes left off. Mixed together in its signature all over design format this installment showcases historical pen and ink sketches by John Tottenham, hummingbird portraits by Brian Calvin, glazed ceramic constructions by Liz Larner, and deadpan street shots by Trevor Hernandez (better known to many by his Instagram handle Gang Culture) together with contributions by Cali Dewitt, Paul Mpagi Sepuya, Lily Stockman, Richard Tinkler, and Evan Whale.

The title, Tomorrow’s Man, comes from an infamous bodybuilding magazine from the 1950s and ‘60s. Reappropriating the publication’s title as well as its retro bodybuilding aesthetic, Pierson takes viewers on a dizzying visual journey encompassing the full spectrum of cultural references. Includes a four large fold-out posters
