Monograph of the American Gay-art photographer and artist James Bidgood (1933-2022). Illustrated in COLOUR. Text in English, German and French. Hardback FIRST EDITION.
¶ "Original camp portraitist" Bidgood is seen as "father of the pulp and glamour aesthetic", an example for artists such as Pierre & Gilles and David LaChapelle. He worked as a drag performer at Club 82 in Manhattan, as a window-dresser, costume designer and freelance photographer with contributions to, among others, Joe Weider's Physique magazines (1963-1967).
