Matthew Barney Modeling Photographs

As every Cremaster Fanatic knows, Matthew Barney helped pay his way through Yale by modeling for catalogs such as J. Crew. We have recently obtained a small archive of Barney's fashion/catalog work from this period and posted the images on CremasterFanatic.com. Follow the links below to see Barney's modeling work for J. Crew, Macy's and Le Coq Sportif, and others.

Pictures from I Die Daily

The web site for Matthew Walin's film I Die Daily - a documentary about the making of the Cremaster Cycle has lots of great "behind the scenes" photographs. I've posted a few images for your viewing pleasure, but there are many more (plus a video trailer) on the official site.
