(DON'T) STAND ALONE Artist's Book by Chris Selleck

$200.00

"Christopher Selleck used a selection of his photographic images to create this artist book. His current, ongoing series investigates masculinity through the lens of body building. His photographic project started in 2015 and includes over 20,000 images. It has since grown to include printmaking, sculpture, installation, video, and book making.The title is a tongue in cheek reference to the idea that men should be stoic and strong resisting any and all external help. The men pictured are all seen as ordered pairs (not alone) except for Selleck whose singular image begins and closes the book. Selleck often displays his images for exhibition in sizes that range from 60 x 40 inches to 20 x 13 inches. The book form is a much more intimate space and feels like a safer space to be experimental and vulnerable." -- Christopher Selleck 7.5" x 5.5'' 2024-2024 Christopher Selleck Edition of 20 + AP (Ed 1-4 sold) Drum Leaf Bind Photo Book Moab Lasal Paper pages and cover Dustjacket cover treated with Hahnemuhle Image Protectant *Consignment item.

Christopher Selleck (he/him) was born in Augusta, GA. He received his BFA in Photography from the University of MN-Twin Cities in 2013 and his MFA in Visual Studies and Photography from the Minneapolis College of Art & Design in 2016. Using sports and masculinity as a lens to view identity, his various projects of the last few years have focused on this area of identity construction. His current projects address issues of hyper-masculinity, sexuality and the male body. Primarily a self-taught book artist through trial and error, Selleck has been working closely with collaborators who help fabricate his more complicated structures and designs.
