Queer Art Calendar: preserving unique and city-specific cultural moments.
BY ORLY LYONNE
JIMMY, a Los Angeles based independently published queer zine, has produced their 2015 Queer Art Calendar, shot by filmmaker/photographer AJ Goodrich.
The calendar features 26 beautifully theatrical portraits recreating Tarot cards. Half of the photo were shot in Los Angeles and the other half at a radical queer commune, revealed Co-Publisher Jimmy Vogel in a recent interview.
According to the zine’s web site “JIMMY doesn’t hand out assignments, but rather invites established and unheard queer voices to contribute provocative images and thoughtful texts that they find meaningful. In a blog-cluttered world, JIMMY revives the form of the classic, printed fag mag to preserve and document a unique and city-specific cultural moment!”
