We imagine him as lost or broken so that we might rescue him, or as potent and aggressive so that we might be the focus of his desire. But the images captured here suggest deeper, more complex realities. These dancers are whimsical, haunting, satiric, playful, ominous. They are not objects, not icons, but stories waiting to be told.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eNot Just Another Pretty Face\u003c\/em\u003e plays with the interface of projections: what these young men project in their poses and expressions, and what we project on them in return. It explores assumptions, prejudices, fantasies, and revelations. It looks beyond the archetype, beneath the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Beautiful Dreamer Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/11\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780970831064\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.57d","brand":"Louis Flint Ceci","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36646091358364,"sku":"9780970831064","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_1699dc25-594d-4914-882e-ae953be5d141.jpg?v=1603863060","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/not-just-another-pretty-face-9780970831064","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
