FRANCOIS SAGAT AT MAD
I know this picture got your attention. A naked man, a ripped naked man at that, on a pink balance ball...not something you see everyday. But this is just a small glimpse of what's to come, a teaser if you will. Want to see more? Swing by The Museum of Art and Design sometime from November 18th-20th to experience a series of films featuring French born François Sagat. A well-known star in the queer film industry, Sagat is now gaining prominence in mainstream cinema. With a trademark tattooed scalp and Adonis physique, François Sagat has sculpted himself into a persona that, as filmmaker Christophe Honoré proclaimed, “redefines the notion of masculinity.” Sagat’s foray as a male actor in French cinema directly challenges the traditional role of the male--a new model for a leading man. Follow this series to see Sagat in action and even sit in on a master class with the man himself!
