DALLAS, TEXAS November 18, 2010 – Episode nine of The Fetish Show features an exclusive hour long interview with gender and identity politics advocate Buck Angel. Buck Angel is a female to male transsexual adult film star, who has travelled the world spreading his message of self-acceptance to places as diverse as Yale University, Idea City, Spike TV, The Tyra Banks Show and the Howard Stern Show. The interview is available through The Fetish Show website, http://thefetishshow.com or through subscription services like iTunes.

Buck Angel is redefining gender and educating an entire generation on the fluidity of sexuality. Since Buck coined the phrase “It’s not what’s between your legs that defines your gender,” the term has become an anthem for men and women everywhere who have been inspired by his message of acceptance.

The Fetish Show host Dirk Hooper said, “Zoe and I are very proud to present a positive interview with the one and only Buck Angel. It was our goal to give Buck a forum to present his history, ideas and philosophy in a way that is rarely presented in the mainstream media. This interview fits well with the mission of The Fetish Show to present information that is both fun and informative to an audience that is hungry for serious content about sex, the fetish culture, erotic art, adult performance, and the BDSM lifestyle.”

TULSA, OKLAHOMA, May 24, 2010 – Fantasy photographer Dirk Hooper will be among seven other Oklahoma artists in the “Steampunk” art exhibition at the Art-N-Style Gallery beginning, Saturday June 5^th. The show will have a cross-section of illustrators and photographers who will present their own interpretation of the steampunk genre. The exhibition is curated by artist Mike Kennedy and will be the first time many of these creators have displayed work in this unique genre.

Steampunk is sub-genre of fantasy and science fiction, typically set within the 19^th century when steam power was prominent and characterized by Victorian-style fashion mixed with fictional inventions like those of writer Jules Verne. Dirk Hooper said, “The look and attitude of steampunk are very much in line with my fantasy and fetish photography. When Mike Kennedy contacted me about this show I got very excited by the prospects of working with the genre.” While new to the world of steampunk, Hooper sees this exhibition as a beginning of a long-term project. “Creating the photos for the ‘Steampunk’ show has been a blast and ideas are now coming fast and furious. I’m officially adding this genre to my body of work,” Hooper said.

Dirk Hooper will have four sepia-toned metallic prints on display at the “Steampunk” art exhibition. Models for the photos include Oklahoma-based professional dominatrix Princess Zoe, Tulsa model Prince, Oklahoma City model Jade and members of steampunk sideshow performance group “Carnival Epsilon,” Marcus, Ivy and Rose. Photographer Dirk Hooper, Princess Zoe and many of the other models for the photos will be in attendance for the opening night event.

The “Steampunk” art exhibition will feature Oklahoma-based artists:

Shawn Wilson, a 20 year veteran graphic designer and comic artist
Phil Hollecker, a science fiction and fantasy illustrator trained on the west coast
Wykkd Lenz (Cyn Burton), journalistic photographer recently featured on the BBC’s “The Week That Was”
Alain Viesca, fantasy artist specializing in digital art and illustration
Mike Kennedy, published creator of over 20 comics and working artist for over 30 years
Lucy Adams, comic artist with a passion for color work
and Zack Raw, a Tulsa artist who will display art for the first time in the “Steampunk” art exhibition.

Opening night for the “Steampunk” art exhibition will be June 5^th at 7:00 – 9:00 p.m. The show will be located at the Art-N-Style Gallery, 1334 East 41^st Street in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Refreshments will be provided and there will be live music by “The Annie Perkins Band”. The exhibition will run through June 30^th. For additional information about the show, please contact Mike Kennedy at 918-935-5387.

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, May 10, 2010 – The work and biography of fetish photographer Dirk Hooper is featured in issue two of the fantasy fashion magazine “Von Gutenberg”. The three-page spread has several of Hooper’s photos and an interview with a brief retrospective of recent events. “Von Gutenberg” is a new American fetish fashion and lifestyle magazine, published in San Francisco, California. The magazine focuses on models, alternative couture, photography, and events, in a style reminiscent of the European fetish magazines “Marquis,” “O” and “Skin Two”.

“During my formative years as an artist, it was just this sort of magazine that was a guide and inspiration for the work I do today,” Hooper said. The opportunity to present his work to “Von Gutenberg’s” audience is very important to Hooper, “While I’m always looking for ways to present my work to a wider audience, this article is a bull’s-eye for my core supporters in the genre I do best, and it’s an honor to be among such great work.”

Three of Hooper’s frequent models are showcased in full page photos. Toxic Goddess Dame Lebeau is on the splash page in the piece titled “Inked”, which has also been seen in four art shows over the past year. Oklahoma Professional Dominatrix Princess Zoe is in the stylish photo titled “Matrix”. The atmospheric photo “Xanthia” features Toxic Goddess Kali with makeup by Danger Darling.

Issue Two of “Von Gutenberg” magazine has photos by Ken Marcus, Violet Photography and Erik Von Gutenberg himself. Models in this issue include Ashley Fires, January, Princess Donna, Marissa and Foxy Squire. The Goth culture, fetish in Greece, the United States Burlesque scene and a fetish guide of Europe is all presented in the second issue. “Von Gutenberg” magazine is available around the world at your local book stores and newsstands, or is for sale directly at http://www.VonGutenbergCouture.com.
