Down memory lane: Carnaval in Rio

Carnaval in Rio was Bjorn’s first action video. At a time (back in the late 80s) when most porn was US produced, Kristen Bjorn opened a whole new world: exotic men, lush locations, daring choreography.
Here’s to the many thrills those early works brought to my life –and to porn aficionados all over the world. And a toast to the countless, unrivaled masterpieces that followed.

Down memory lane: ITALIAN STYLE

Our good friends at KristenBjorn.com have posted pix/video of ITALIAN STYLE. Shot back in 2000 (!), it marked our first co-production with Kristen and took home our first GayVn Award for Best Int’l Video. Pictured here the four-way from “The Pool”, with Flavio Rossini, Tony Colombo, Roberto Ruggiero and Michelangelo Risi.

On Kristen Bjorn

“In his maturity as a director”, writes Onan the Vulgarian, “he has become the master of his domain, a prime mover, and a grand architect”. I’ve always thought of Kristen Bjorn as the sculptor of gay porn: his inspiration is predominantly ‘plastic’, as much as George Duroy’s is often lyric. However I find Onan’s review more euristically fertile than mine: indeed Kristen ‘sculpts’ the male form with the vigor of a Michelangelo. But he also composes the naked bodies in relation to the space they inhabit –like an architect would. Not a ‘decorative’ relation, but a deeper, more meaningful, sexually charged relation.
