Bob Mizer Foundation Film Screenings
While at the Mizer Foundation, Zinkievich designed and implemented the new film screening programming which runs bi-monthly with the mission to engage the public with Mizer's moving images and create lasting discourse about the history of queer imagery in the United States
Image on the right shows Zinkievich (right) and musician/composer Everett Fisher engaged in a pannel discussion after the screening held on August 16th 2024.
Gustaf Holmes [with monkey]
Robert "Bob" Mizer, Los Angeles, 1951, 9.5"x7.5"
Selenium-toned silver gelatin print from original negative.
Early in his career Bob Mizer often experimented with double-exposed photographic methods. These mesmerizing and surreal images often include the model double-exposed, simply, with another image of themselves in another position. These can be as tame as a paired front-and-back of their physique to as grotesque as the model holding his own severed head. This image positions Holmes paired against an over-sized image of a spider monkey- rendering the otherwise timid animal looming and imposing. The viewer is asked to question the relationship between the body of the young model and that of the hulking beast.
This image is on display until April 27th as part of the exhibition "So it Begins... The Complete Mizer Chronicles".
