Keyword results: Amanda De Simone
You don’t have to walk down King St too often to realise that humans (particularly men) behave like animals and in an Attenborough-esque analogy Cock Fight by local photographer Amanda De Simone draws a comparison between men’s club members and fighting cocks. Avoiding the broad-brush (or lens) the exhibition delves into ideas of masculine functionality in artificial environments and explores male personality and also purpose within a group.
With Amanda De Simone’s new exhibition, Crying Boy Fanclub, it would seem that The Cure were wrong all along – boys do cry. Similar to Sam Taylor-Woods exhibition, Crying Men (NYC 2004), which featured the likes of Lawrence Fishburne and Benicio del Toro, Crying Boy Fanclub shows the vulnerability behind the armour of masculinity.
