Heartbeat by Nan Goldin Nan Goldin’s deceptively simple, intensely intimate photographs on these pages, taken from her recent exhibition Heartbeat, demonstrate why her work has had so much impact beyond the rarefied world of art photography.
Picture yourself … by Jason Capobianco and Nicolas Jurnjack Photographer Jason Capobianco and hairstylist Nicolas Jurnjack take us on a colorful if hairy trip to the innermost recesses of the known universe – your mind.
Out of My Head by Karen Collins and Art Director U-Cef Hanjani Photographer Karen Collins, Art Director U-Cef Hanjani and model Ann Oost collaborate to expose the multi-interest, chaotic, media saturated, private mind behind the enigmatic façade of today’s youth.
Mirror Mirror on the Wall by Mark Squires and Samantha Rapp Formerly a dancer, model Jamie Bochert dons masks, vinyl maid’s uniforms and stiletto healed boots: perfect photo productions, perfectly private, perfectly hot. Need we say more about the extraordinary work of photographic partners Mark and Sam?
An Interview with Taryn Manning Actress/Pop Star Taryn Manning has an honesty, an edginess and a work ethic that is preparing her to become one of the most interesting stars of her generation. We ask how she’s coping with sudden celebrity.
Going Public Staying Private by Matt Jones: Matt Jones photographs of shooting star Taryn Manning, give us an insight into her public persona and a few of her many private faces. And a few great outfits as well.
Couture Daze, Couture Nights by Richard Gray: The exquisitely detailed and hyperelegant illustrations Richard Gray created for sleek, explore the public presentation and private pleasures of a life dazed by couture.
Seka in all that glitters by Todd MacIntire Digital artist Todd MacIntire has taken screen grabs of 70s erotic icon Seka, added a sleek touch and some very expensive jewels to arrive at an ecstatically intimate accessory statement.
From the tip of Her Toes to the Top of Her Hose by Victor June Photographer Victor June takes the kinky, trendsetting 50s fetishism of Elmer Battles and hypes up the glam with some fabulous shoes and to-die-for stockings.
Hiding in Plain Sight by Francesco Licata Photographer Francesco Licata explores the essential armor of contemporary urban life: fashion.
The Yearning of Veronica Voss by Dirk Seiden Schwan Photographer Dirk Seiden Schwan finds the secret corners and hidden moments of seclusion in the very public metropolis of Berlin. Fassbinder’s heroine Veronica Voss would have been quite at home.
Stars of Eternal Youth by Elizabeth Peyton Elizabeth Peyton’s portraits deal with stars as though they were intimate friends and transform intimate friends into stars.
A-Z Uniforms by Andrea Zittel Conceptual artist and sculptor Andrea Zittel has fascinated the international art world with her unique approach to the personal everyday objects of daily life. Here, she puts her own spin on the dictates of staying in fashion.
An Interview with Elke Krystufek Exhibitionism. Bulimia. Voyeurism. Performance artist Elke Krystufek uses her own naked body and personal experiences to frankly examine the boundaries separating public and private behavior.
An Interview with Luc Tuymans Bursting onto the scene with the 2001 Biennale and the 2002 Documenta, Luc Tuymans work has continued to grow in acclaim. Exhibitionism, voyeurism, fetishism, fashion, advertising and war are just a few of the topics he hits in this insightful interview.
Breaking the Barriers by Jorge Pardo and George Porcari The original collages of George Porcari break yet another barrier by interpreting how Pardo uses light and his digital art to create private spaces within public environments.
Your Body is My Product by Santiago Sierra Sierra’s brutally profound work on these pages demonstrates why his pieces for the Spanish Pavilion in this year’s Venice Biennale received – otherwise scant – critical acclaim.
Home Sweet Home by Foreign Office Architects We were drawn to FOA’s work by the almost abstract beauty of their drawings and their challenge to the conventions in public and private space. Their proposals for large public projects like the WTC competition or, as on these pages, with two proposals for future homes are radical but ultimately realisable.
An Interview with Jonathan Murray Producer Jonathan Murray launched MTV’s The Real World on an unsuspecting public some 13 years ago and it seems he was, at least initially, as surprised as we are at the social effects of that landmark broadcast.
The Privacy of Your Own Three Walls by Michael Heinsen Photographer Michael Heinsen shows how a certain Viennese bathing culture seems to have worked out a system allowing them to luxuriate in distinctly cramped and not terribly private quarters.
The Last Still Life of Mr. M by Oliver Schwarzwald Photographer Oliver Schwarzwald, stylist Maria Grossmann and writer Judith Stoletzky imagine what is at once life’s most private moment, but also the very time when you are most defenceless to protect your privacy.
It’s About Sex by Heji Shin Heji Shin’s sensitive portraits of a serene and contemplative young woman at first glance belie the fact that their subject is a well-known Berlin porn star. Shin’s work asks the question “Are there some things more intimate than porn?”
An Icon in My Eyes by Gunter Sachs Gunter Sachs embodies an era of international jet-setting glamour which is not only gone forever, but has been so publicly grand that it often overshadows his work as an artist and photographer. Here, we reconsider Sachs.
Quote We had a lot of prime contenders for the quote which best summed up the key issues behind Sleek Privat? Public but we all agreed that this one from Edgar Watson Howe (1853 - 1937) simply looked the best.
The Bare Facts With more red spots than acne on a teenagers face, the map of surveillance cameras in the area surrounding Times Square and a few other staggering statistics demonstrate that urban anonymity is a thing of the past.
