The Golden Age of the American Male: Films From Bob Mizer's Legendary Athletic Model Guild

The Golden Age of the American Male: Films From Bob Mizer's Legendary Athletic Model Guild
Feb 4, 2012 7:30pm
Introduced by Billy Miller
Bob Mizer (1922 - 1992) was an American photographer, publisher and filmmaker who was known for pushing societal boundaries in his work. He would go on to build a veritable empire from his photographs and films with the Athletic Model Guild (AMG) studio, producing over 3,000 film titles and over 7,500 hours of video tape. Artists as varied as Robert Mapplethorpe, David Hockney, Bruce Weber, and Gore Vidal have been influenced by his work. With the idea of "deconstructing masculinity" in mind, NYC-based curator and writer Billy Miller (Straight to Hell) presents and contextualizes this survey of clips from Mizer's groundbreaking films, compiled in conjunction with Dennis Bell of the Bob Mizer Foundation.

Admission: $8 general/$6 YBCA members, students, seniors
