I saw McGinley's show at the Whitney - it was pretty awesome - I dig his renagade style and relaxed sexiness.

i love your comment about irrelevant statements in this section....it reminds me of a recent experience in questioning locations and a LOST culture, as what is accepted as representation of locations and misguided. similar to when a person misrepresents as a nanny and opts to become a tabloid author. just as location water becomes tainted, as one pretends to be a resident of san francisco and they're really visiting from winnemucca. does that do justice to the REAL picture?? it's a lost and irrelevant delusion fragmented by bad market values. is that novel?? probably not.

The guy in the photo looks like Alexandre Despatie.
And Timothy Greenfield-Sanders's Go-Go Boys spread in Flaunt was the hotness.
