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.

\ No one was born Butch. People were born babies and promptly burst into tears, which was most Un-Butch,\ declares Clark Henley's Butch Manual, a hilarious 1980s cult classic that reminds us that being butch is just another form of drag. The Butch Manual educates wannabe Butches on how to walk, talk, stand (or lean), dress and even what drugs to take to avoid the freak out zone. Henley doubles as a hunky model for campy photo spreads demonstrating the proper way to sit (if you must) and an admonishment to the fey among us: Do not talk with your hands.
