I’m not going to spew a bunch of art-speak diarrhea and try and distract attention away from the total superficiality of this artwork. This gridded nine-part confection is only intend-ed to be the type of eye candy that induces dirty thoughts and makes you horny. Aside from evoking the seriality of everyone from Claude Monet to Bernd and Hilla Becker to, I suppose, Andy Warhol – let’s be clear, there is absolutely no depth to be found in “Work 929:…
Trying to Hide”. I suppose you could strain yourself in the effort to find some continuum between ancient Greek and Roman sculpture, gay porn, toxic masculinity, and present-day male (steroid-induced) narcissism . . . or not. In the words of poet Judd Mortimer Lewis “If you know of a skeleton hidden away in a closet and guarded and kept from the day in the dark; and whose showing, whose sudden display would cause grief and sorrow and lifelong dismay, it’s a pretty good plan to forget it.”

Bruce Eves
Canada
Bruce Eves was the recipient of the Governor-General’s Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Visual and Media Arts in 2018 and was the subject of Peter Dudar’s feature-length documentary “Bruce Eves in Polari” that premiered at The Power Plant. Eves was ranked 26th on the Alt-Power100 list compiled by ArtLyst (UK). In the past he was assistant-programming director at the Centre for Experimental Art and Communication (CEAC) in the late 1970s; and throughout the 1980s was the co-founder and chief archivist of the International Gay History Archive (now housed in the Rare Book and Manuscript division of the New York Public Library). Eves continues an active practice of exhibiting and curating on the cutting-edge, and in recent years has pushed the envelope further by expanding his work to include spoken-word projects performed monthly at the Black Eagle bar’s Dirty Queer Poetry Nights. Eves lives and works in Toronto and seeks representation. His CV can be viewed at www.bruceeves.net
