5.0 out of 5 stars Embrace the Body and Beyond with Charles Gatewood, March 17, 2001

This review is from: Charles Gatewood Photographs: The Body and Beyond (Hardcover)

Culled from over 30s years of work documenting the fringes of human experience, Charles Gatewood has assembled a luscious collection of 50 duotone photographs from his collection. Starting with art openings and happenings in the late 60s, through the Modern Primitives movement and Burning Man in the late 90s, Gatewood has been capturing people pushing their ideas and their bodies for art and pleasure. See showoffs and gay men from Mardi Gras in the 70s. Visit the disco parties and gay sex clubs in New York. Travel from East Coast to West, and see many ideas and ideals of beauty. As with good art, this one makes you think!
