Anthony Goicolea's third book is an amalgam of photographs and drawings. Though the artist no longer uses himself as a model, he continues to use the motifs of his earlier work.
Goicolea s subjects seem to have left their public schoolboy roots behind, and matriculated in an environment that is otherworldly, replete with codes and rituals unfamiliar to the viewer.
Often appearing in matching uniforms--everything from red hooded sweatshirts to white underwear--Goicolea's tribe of boys kiss under moonlight, build forts in strange, idyllic environs, Christen each other in shallow pools, and engage in a mischief whose purpose is never quite clear.
