Zach Grear: ‘My style of doing a lot of tattoo imagery, began as I got more tattooed. It’s something I wanted to include in my art.’
Zach Grear’s tattoo-covered portraits of queer icons and male-erotica on Instagram have intrigued us for years. Troubling the boundaries between what is beautiful and what is grotesque, we learned more about his relationship to his highly erotic images as he releases his second collection of work ‘Shower with Affection Group Shower this summer.

It’s a disarmingly beautiful summer day in Beverly Hills. It seems surreal and almost makes me nervous to be sitting (in social distance) at this glamorous rooftop restaurant after being in solitary quarantine for four months in a one-bedroom apartment in humid Philadelphia. I’m George Alley, an occasional pop musician, a professor of Punk at […]
Allie X: ‘There was a lot of blood…’
Loverboy worships an artist that takes inspiration from the darker arts…or at least the darker side of pop, and so we have been eagerly anticipating the latest era of one Allie X. The album, Cape God, dropped on Friday and this time around Allie X has delved deeper into the darkness than ever before, whether […]
