Saint Gael opening tonight at Miss China Beauty
St.Gael
In one predatory glance, ripping his image form the magazine, (thought) the most beautiful mouth I had ever seen. That’s the startling statement from artist Vincent Gagliostro’s new show about his obsession with Mexican actor Gael Garcia Bernal (Y tu Mama Tambien, Babel, Motorcycle Diaries). Gagliostro reveals his predatory nature as an artist (his contention, that all artists are somewhat predatory) exploiting this particular subject through his particular brand of gay politics and activism. Artist Susan Shup curated this highly charged installation of videos, paintings, and photomontage.
