I see a red door....
and I want it painted black
More colors out the door I want them to turn back
I see the boys walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have this urn overhead until my darkness snows...
Hmm, hmm, hmm...

My installation for BOYS TOYS
My installation for the "Boys Toys" exhibition in Warsaw @ Galerie Czulosc was basically a giant collaborative group drawing. I made about 40 'coloring book style' drawings (25 of them made specifically for the exhibition) that were xeroxed en masse and covered the walls of my room with an invitation for the audience to interact by adding their own marks, doodles and drawings to my own. Coloring outside of the lines was encouraged.
The drawings I produced reflect my feelings about 'boys toys'; both the show itself and it's sexual innuendos, as well as my growing fixation with sexual and gender ambiguities, gray areas and variations.

BOYS TOYS is an exhibition by three young, handsome and crazy artists, one of whom lives in Bratislava and two in New York. None of them has shown his work in Poland, which makes this a unique opportunity, especially since most of the works have been created specially for this exhibition.
BOYS TOYS will includes the boys’ cartoon alter egos, who have vivid imaginations and risky adventures. They are complemented by a tasty selection of short video clips and music videos.

June 4 - 25, 2011
Opening: Saturday, June 4th, 3-6 PM
each day we would carve each day like a piece of vulture
as a trail of days like an overlay brunette sculpture
until suddenly last summer is that penned
using people and maybe that's not contend
not being able to use people to borrow
suddenly peaceful after all that taboo tomorrow
those nightmares just to be able to tame
their eyes to a sky not black with savage shame

In Slava Mogutin's Suddenly Last Summer, 25 photographic images of male subjects are set in traces of blurred summer color. They are taken with a Holga camera, whose plastic lens delivers the type of experimental accidents for which Jack Smith and Stan Brakhage strove. The resulting light-leaks and double-exposures allow Mogutin a new impressionist vision where a rich and refracted spectrum is layered into the penetrating light of day.
These images are not erotic per se but emotional – an expression of love's natural freedom as opposed to repression's unnatural grip. In perfect contrast to Sebastian's horrifying noonday martyrdom in Williams' Suddenly, Last Summer, Mogutin's subjects live and perform in the open, in brilliant air, in full color and natural light.
Slava Mogutin's luminous pictures celebrate a polychrome Eden that has actually, largely arrived.
