Chicago’s Jacob Meehan, photographer and director of Lakeview’s GOLDEN gallery is having quite a September. First, his photos of the Bijou Theatre (the nations oldest running porn theater) appeared in the current issue of Butt Magazine, alongside interview with Bijou owner Steven Toushin. Meehan was kind enough to send over some Bijou “outtakes” which are posted here after the jump. In addition to being published in one of the most interesting and respected indie-gay publications, Meehan’s gallery’s latest show is happening this Saturday the 12th at GOLDEN Gallery, 816 W. Newport, featuring a collection of photographs by Doug Ischar. Ischar is a local professor and documented Chicago’s Belmont Rocks in the early 80′s, a lakefront paradise of gay men flaunting their queerness. The show is called “Marginal Waters” and it’s showing through October 17th. More information at golden-gallery.org, read an interview with Ischar in this week’s Timeout.
