Photography: dirty glam

I love the grittiness of these photos, where beauty isn't glamorized. It is taken, thrown down on a gross, sticky sidewalk and stepped on repeatedly with muddy boots.

It might make you love them more to know that the Marylin Minter pieces aren't photographs, they're paintings (although that top one looks like it might be a drawing). Pretty incredible.
