Description:

While in residence at Western Front, Brice Canyon produced the single-channel video Son of Fascist in Love. The work begins with a man masturbating on a zebra-print blanket—a scene that appears in Canyon’s video work Fascist in Love (1989). A title card reading “The most beautiful men in the world” briefly appears before abruptly cutting to a montage of men firing Heckler & Koch assault rifles in a desert.

Video documentation is available upon request.
