and influence on our culture. Packed with more than 80 color and black-and-white pictures, Blow Me a Kiss presents stunning images by Andy Warhol, David LaChapelle, Francesco Clemente, Lillian Bassman, Elizabeth Peyton, Alex Katz, Cindy Sherman, Louise Bourgeois, Roy Lichtenstein, Man Ray, Elliott Erwitt, Jeff Koons, Elinor Carucci, Bert Stern, William Klein, Mario Sorrenti, and many other groundbreaking visual artists who’ve depicted lips at work and lips at play, from lips caught in quiet repose, to lips locked in a lustful embrace, to the lipstick stained remains of an ephemeral kiss.

Nicholas Blair : Castro to Christopher ; Gay Streets of America, 1979-1986
Entre 1979 et 1986 — après Stonewall et avant les jours les plus sombres de l’épidémie de sida —, il y a eu une période de vie gaie exubérante et florissante dans des endroits même alors connus sous le nom de « paradis gais ». Il y en avait d’autres, mais les plus connus étaient Castro District de San Francisco, Christopher Street et Fire Island de New York, et Provincetown, Massachusetts.
