Boy george

photographed George in a shared studio space (with Tim Goslin, art director at Fiorucci and Warhol protegé) on 42nd Street over Peepland. The building above the porno emporium housed many artists at the time including Ruben and Isabel Toledo. George had just released his single from the film, the Crying Game. He wanted to be photographed simply with little makeup. He was dressed in a tailored Dolce & Gabbana suit and shot on both a white and black background. Paul Starr did the hair/makeup and although the images are quiet in nature, the studio was nothing but. We had a fantastic boisterous time.
