Krach’s series of 28 collages, entitled “Twentieth Century Men,” is constructed from two books: a catalogue from MoMa called Sculpture of the 20th Century (1952) and a book of male erotic photographs, The Look of Men, (1980) by Victor Arimondi.

Krach says: “I loved both books for their still-potent visual pleasure. Yet I felt guilty for enjoying them. Modernism did not equal progress, at least not for most people. And the history of gay men—and the world—forever changed during the 1980s.”

The 88-page book, produced in an edition of 100, will be available for purchase from the artist’s booth at the NY Art Book Fair as well as at CLAMP ($45 + shipping).
