Direct Your Longing Gaze at These Men in Their Bachelor Pads

New, 24 comments

Inspired by magazine spreads of the 1960s, photographer Jeanette May has recreated the sexualized tableau that says a man's place is in his home. Are today's urban homes of single men featuring plasma tvs and iPod dock sound systems just a continuation of the swinging bachelor pads of the 1960s that had hi-fi reel-to-reel stereos and wet bars to entice sexually liberated women or men? May will be exhibiting her "Bachelor Pad" series of photographs in a solo show at the A.I.R. Gallery in Dumbo Feb. 1-25, with an opening reception on February 2nd.
