Illustrated in b/w and colour throughout - First edition of 2500 copies. - Text by Jane Harris. - 'Some of his work features photographs of pre- to barely pubescent boys in elaborately staged tableau settings, commonly showing multiple boys wearing traditional private school uniforms either engaged in school-life or recreation after school - but with often transgressive and erotic twists in their activities. Of great interest in these compositions is the fact that Goicolea (b. 1971) himself portrays all of the boys in his photographs through the astute use of costumes, wigs, makeup, and post-production editing using Adobe Photoshop - always looking uncannily like a boy on the edge of puberty. Therefore, despite having numerous figures in them, Goicolea's photographs are actually very complex large-scale self-portraits, and are always done in a flawlessly realist manner. - CD-Rom includes an interview with Gus Van Sant. - New copy
