A new book and photo exhibit spotlights the copasetic relationship between photographer Marc Martin and Benjamin, his unique model. Their collaboration — "Beau Menteur" — is both a book and photo exhibit that runs in Paris through October 10. "Handsome Liar," as the book and exhibit is called in English, push the boundaries of masculinity through Benjamin's phantasmagorical and very cinematographic universe that's filled with "many cultural references and a beautiful diversity," writes the French website TÊTU. Benjamin, the website adds, "embodies all the men in your life (in him together)." Martin met Benjamin through a mutual friend. "An arranged marriage," laughed Benjamin, who comes from Angevin before coming to Paris where he worked as a drag queen. "...when I arrived in Paris, I discovered cabaret which gave me even more desires. I wanted to go beyond cross-dressing, on the drag-queen side with a new dynamic by working on the very visual man / woman side, on the sensations. using my masculine side in performances, without it being unhealthy, nor seen as superior to the feminine side."
