BUTT Magazine #17

Autumn 2006, published five years after BUTT began and alongside the first BUTT Book, the anthology the editors made that summer.

Bruce LaBruce interviews Gus Van Sant. Stuart Comer interviews Wolfgang Tillmans, photographed by Heinz Peter Knes, in an exchange printed in German. James Anderson talks to the artist Jimmy Robert, photographed by Tillmans; William Van Meter interviews the porn actor François Sagat, photographed by Marcus Mam; David Mills talks to Ernesto, photographed by Johnnie Shand Kydd; and Gert Jonkers interviews Edmund White. Helmut Lang contributes a diary, Heinz Peter Knes shoots Ioannis and Shand Kydd files "Out."

Seventy-six pages on pink paper. The editors chose not to make it an anniversary issue, noting only that they had worked their asses off producing the book instead.
