Toronto-based filmmaker, writer and photographer Bruce LaBruce opened a rather unusual solo exhibition entitled “Untitled Hardcore Zombie Project” a few days ago.
In addition to a whole lot of blood and gore, the zombie-themed exhibition featured porn star François Sagat and model (and forever known as the former Madonna boytoy) Tony Ward in its opening night.
“Untitled Hardcore Zombie Project” runs at Peres Projects in L.A. from May 23 to June 27, 2009.
