Aaron Cobbett Shoots The Stars (And Other Hot Guys)

If those ragged pages you've torn out of HX magazine and stuck on your refrigerator just aren't doing it for you by way of home decor anymore, you might want to make it down to DUMBO this evening for the opening of photographer Aaron Cobbett's new show at the Wessel + O'Connor gallery. With a style that falls somewhere between classic physique photography and the sexy fever dreams of James Bidgood and Pierre et Gilles —but with a glossy sensibility that's very much his own—Cobbett has made a career of taking pictures of some of porn's shining lights (including the suddenly-everywhere-we-look-this-week Matthew Rush and Erik Rhodes) and tastiest slabs of beefcake along with the occasional celebrity for the preeminent NYC ~~bar rag~~ gay listings magazine and other august publications including Vogue, Vanity Fair, and Honcho.

If you can't make it to the opening, be sure to check it out as soon as you can before it closes next month—there's going to be a lot of other discriminating homosexualists looking to tart up their walls with some of that hotness as well.
