A re-worked version of our interview with Joseph OLeary (see below for a sneak peak) will be included in his upcoming book, Of Beards and Men. We’re in hirsute heaven!
Just to remind you…….
Being Beardrevered, we find ourselves particularly excited by photography books involving facial hair, and with artist and photographer, Joseph Daniel Robert OLeary, we hit the jackpot. His photography project, Of Beards and Men, is creating a bit of a stir. This series of photographs examining society’s obsession with defining masculinity has resulted in 125+ portraits where each sitter (many of whom had never been in front of a professional camera before) go all out to reveal their true persona and sense of manhood through the watchful eye of OLeary’s lens. The results are stunning (as are the beards).
The Of Beards and Men book will be published this Autumn
