ONE Archives Gallery and Museum is honored to announce the exhibition "The Glamorous Gaze: Portraits by Mark A Vieira, 1973-1983."  The period following Gay Liberation and preceding AIDS was much like the Roaring Twenties, a time of experimentation, inanity and self-expression.

Mark A. Vieira was a staff photographer at the University of Southern California and a student of Hollywood glamour photographer George Hurrell. Vieira used this technique-view camera, incandescent lights, and pencil retouching-to glamorize subjects he found at Studio One and Circus. This look at the gay disco era has a unique perspective, that of an artist capturing his peers with a lost idiom.
