Peter Schlesinger video calls from his studio in Manhattan’s Flatiron district. The building dates from the 1910s, and the place where he’s sitting used to be a girdle factory—making the kind of underwear that hoists recalcitrant flesh into shape. Since 1979, however, when Schlesinger and his partner, the photographer Eric Boman, bought a whole floor of the building for a knock-down price, there’s been a less painful kind of smoothing and sculpting.
Have any particular civilizations inspired this show? “I surf through them all, I think,” Schlesinger replies. Schlesinger trained as a painter, studying at The Slade in London after he relocated to the U.K. with Hockney in 1968. However, he says, he turned to ceramics as “I think I didn’t like paint, the actual oil paint. I hated cleaning the brushes.” These days, sculpture is a two-stage—and two-location—process.
, the semi-improvised, experimental 1974 film which charted the breakdown of his relationship with Hockney? “I last watched it when it came out,” Schlesinger says. “I don’t enjoy watching myself. I’ve heard people say it’s held up as a movie, but you can’t be objective—seeing myself looking silly or stupid or whatever.”“Well, I can’t say that about myself,” Schlesinger demurs.
