There’s been a lot of talk about gender identity and masculinity in the last year and it’s going to continue through 2020. This exhibition looks promising. Masculinities: Liberation Through Photography opens at The Barbican next month, featuring work from over 50 artists, photographers and filmmakers, including Sunil Gupta (above), Richard Avedon, Jeremy Deller, Karlheinz Weinberger and Collier Schorr.
OK, I love it already! (more…)
Love a Karlheinz Weinberger clipdangler. That is, a leather clip to dangle from your belt to hang your keys from (in the style of the Karlheinz kids).

And while Googling ‘clipdangler’, I came across the Everyday Carry Tumblr, full of photos of the essential stuff men carry daily in their pockets/man bags plus commentary to go with. (more…)

Lucky New Yorkers get not one but two Karlheinz Weinberger exhibitions this month. One opened at the Swiss Institute of Contemporary Art last week (Feb 9-March 26) while the other is showing at the Anna Kustera Gallery, 520 West 21st Street (Feb 10- March 26). London next?
