Charles Gustina presents his audience with provocative and totally idiosyncratic gender-bender portraits. The eccentricity of the photographs is heightened by the recurring religious motifs: some quite obvious, others very subtle. The autobiographical introduction provides some of the background clues for this unusual view of the world, but the full story remains elusive, perhaps even for the photographer himself. The homoerotic element in the photographs is often completely muted by the mysterious, but often playful, atmosphere so tantalizingly conveyed by Mr. Gustina. It won't be everyone's choice as a coffee table book, but those who take a chance will be rewarded.
