Volume Two of queercore icon Bruce LaBruce’s latest book Photo Ephemera is a continuation of LaBruce’s visual autobiography, providing a way to participate in his uproarious life without having to actually be a part of it.
.
The photos, largely taken with a digital point-and-shoot camera before smart phones took over everything, bring one closer to the person behind the auteur, with candid snapshots of a life filled with fun, sex and travels at times in contrast to LaBruce’s more transgressive and extreme artistic work.
.
As Susan Sontag wrote, you cannot hold reality, but you can hold a photograph. Not only is a photograph a way of preserving the past, but very much a way of handling the present.
