And the main reason for this omission? His greatest project, a movie entitled <em>Pink Narcissus<\/em> that took more than seven years to complete before finally being released anonymously. This was apparently the fault of the financiers who forced him to release the 66-minute feature length even though he considered it unfinished. As a sort of revenge Bidgood insisted the credits said \u201cDirected by: Anonymous\u201d, raging yet hoping this mystery would intrigue potential spectators. No such luck and the film was sometimes attributed to Andy Warhol and at others to Kenneth Anger \u2013 with whom he clearly shared a love for pop visuals in Technicolor.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p class=\"rtecenter\"><span class=\"fs-add-2\"><strong>Without a penny in his pocket, he was 81-years old when in 2014 he launched a crowdfunding campaign to finance the purchasing of a new camera.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n\n                <figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n                <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Pink Narcissus (1971)\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-cookieconsent=\"statistics, marketing\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LdiV52ByFTI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><div class=\"cookieconsent-optout-statistics cookieconsent-optout-marketing\"><\/div>\n                <\/div><\/figure>\n                <p><span class=\"fs-add-1\"><strong>Released around the same time, the erotic thriller <em>Boys in the Sand<\/em> <\/strong>directed by Wakefield Poole, another master of the genre, proffered a new vision and in doing so eclipsed the style of James Bidgood, considered old school. Apart from a brief revival of interest in the 1980s, he never got over this accumulation of unforeseen contrarieties and led a precarious life in New York City for more than 40 years.&nbsp; Without a penny in his pocket, he was 81-years old when in 2014 he launched a crowdfunding campaign to finance the purchasing of a new camera and help produce new visual projects. Ironically his work has since become cult and a source of inspiration for photographer duo Pierre et Gilles not to mention David LaChapelle, with his photos selling for several tens of thousands of euros per piece.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p class=\"rtecenter\">&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p class=\"rtecenter\"><span class=\"fs-add-2\"><strong>The real revelation came when he met Bobby Kendall, a sublime youth originally from Latin America who became his muse and the star of his film.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span class=\"fs-add-1\"><strong>Flashback to the 1960s :<\/strong> a 17-year old James was making ends meet by working as a costumier on Broadway and then as a drag queen at Club 82, a glam rock venue in New York. After having studied at Parsons he started publishing his photos in underground revues and gay magazines of the era, giving him some visibility and a small wage. The real revelation came when he met Bobby Kendall, a sublime youth originally from Latin America who became his muse and the star of his film, which he made entirely using Super 8. Inspired by the work of Michael Powell, who directed the marvellous <em>Red Shoes<\/em> in 1948, he shut himself away in his apartment in Hell\u2019s Kitchen to devote himself to the project of his life, his ultimate work.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p class=\"rtecenter\"><span class=\"fs-add-2\"><strong><em>Pink Narcissus<\/em>&nbsp;told the autobiographical story of a beautiful gigolo&nbsp;who recreates an imaginary inner world within his apartment.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n\n                <figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n                <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Les Chaussons rouges ( bande annonce VOST )\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-cookieconsent=\"statistics, marketing\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LGTa6pJX044?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><div class=\"cookieconsent-optout-statistics cookieconsent-optout-marketing\"><\/div>\n                <\/div><\/figure>\n                <p><span class=\"fs-add-1\"><strong>The movie told the autobiographical story of a beautiful gigolo<\/strong> who recreates an imaginary inner world within his apartment, where he enacts fantasies through the sheer force of his imagination. Bidgood took on every role : director, decorator, costume designer, make-up artist\u2026 The motivating force behind this crazy undertaking was a desire to appropriate the glamourous aesthetic of the 1940s and 50s and apply it to men, while featuring mythological references. Enriched with his experience as a decorator, he made all the decors from scratch and lived with his lover surrounded by these extraordinary constructions in paper and sequins. For seven years his life revolved around two words : <em>Pink Narcissus<\/em>. It\u2019s a spuriously na\u00efve film that in reality is charged with symbolism and political declaration at a time when sexual liberation was just beginning.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span class=\"fs-add-1\">Today the wind seems to have finally turned for the American: after the release of a book by Bruce Benderson published by Taschen in 2014, the Gallery Mathias Coullaud is currently exhibiting 40 of his vintage prints from 1963.
