Portraits of Truth: Anthony Goicolea & Stéphane Gizard

The BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Podcast

Show Notes

On this episode of The BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Podcast, host Graeme Smith is joined by two visionary artists whose work invites us to look deeper—into the self, into youth, and into the fragility of masculinity.

First, we hear from Anthony Goicolea, the artist behind New York's official LGBTQ monument. A Cuban-American photographer known for his surreal, shape-shifting self-portraits, Goicolea uses haunting imagery and complex installations to explore identity, memory, and transformation—blurring the lines between the real and the imagined.

Then, live from our gallery café in London, Stéphane Gizard sits down with Jorge Gariz to discuss his celebrated photography. With a uniquely tender gaze, Gizard captures young male subjects in moments of vulnerability and power, documenting a visual language of truth, sensuality, and queer intimacy. Brought to you by BOYS!
