Daniel Case: Outside Sex
Text by Drew Daniel, Brontez Purnell, Peter Berlin.
Documenting the landscape and sexscape of popular spots for gay cruising in America
The American artist Daniel Case (born 1979) works in the mediums of digital and film photography and bookmaking. He practices documentary landscape and unconventional portrait photography that often involves surveillance, documentation and the archiving of queer people and spaces through intimate examinations of interiors and site-specific landscapes. Daniel Case: Outside Sex provides exactly what the title promises: candid photographs of gay men having sex outdoors in cruising grounds scattered throughout California. Says Case, "The energy and history of each carved-out space felt like spiritual ruins. I wanted to evoke the beauty and magic of these spaces, the history of what's formed them and the reality that like ruins they are fading, but they stand as monuments to their purpose and the intimate experiences shared."
PRAISE AND REVIEWS
Collector Daily
Blake Andrews
'Outside Sex' explores new territory. Outside sex is not just performed under open skies. It is sex outside of cultural norms. Even if these photos were made outside, they busts down a few doors. Bedroom interiors beware. This is an unusual photobook on a subject which is more common than you might think.

Miss Rosen
With the publication of 'Outside Sex' (Dark Entries Editions), Case crafts a panorama of cruising grounds scattered across California, like hidden gems known only to those who are intimate with the pleasures of public flesh. Working from a distance, Case places himself in the position of voyeur, the watcher whose known or unknown presence fuels the thrill of it all. The result is a lush landscape of desires unleashed under the wide-open sky, free as wind and the ocean itself.
