Denis Denis: Lust at First Sight / Love at First Sight

Bread & Wine: An Erotic Tale of New York, tells the story of a romance that defied social norms and brought two unlikely people together across the boundaries of class, race and convention. Delany was a successful novelist, essayist and professor, when he met Denis, a homeless man selling books on the street in Manhattan. They slowly developed a friendship that grew into a caring relationship—despite the immense differences in their lives. By turns bizarre, humorous and touching, Bread and Wine has garnered praise from the likes of Neil Gaiman, Edmund White and Alan Moore. Delany talks about the story with Mia Wolff, the co-creator of the graphic novel that grew out of it. Out of print for years, Bread and Wine has now been reissued by Fantagraphics Books.

Pocket artist red book - 60 pages

In 1998 we put together this little charming pocket book inspired by late 70's mass market romance collection Sabrina, Julia & Bianca. These novels were massive in Brasil & sold millions of copies around the country - making also a huge impact on housewives & teenagers of all states who were by then discovering or exploring their sexuality.

We did a limited edition of 1000 copies to accompany our performance Musica de Amor self-releasing it at the time through our imprint High School. The red book also worked as a libretto and a graphic score to follow the characters of our pieces. It comes with texts, drawings, schemes, photographs and lyrics taken from three different works Alexander's Grave (1995), Creme (1997), Musica De Amor (1998).
