Join us for a screening of the documentary Hidden Master: The Legacy of George Platt Lynes, followed by a Q&A with the film's director and producer Sam Shahid, and producer and cinematographer Matthew Kraus.

WATCH THE TRAILER

The film showcases the legacy of George Platt Lynes who—while best remembered for his career photographing celebrities and extravagant fashion—is recently being fully discovered and appreciated for work with the male nude. This work—which was sensuous and radically explicit for its time—showcases a man capturing his fantasies as a gift, a window to a future his camera saw coming before anyone else.
