 Rick Castro lives and works in Hollywood, where he daily blogs- antebellumgallery.blogspot.com.

In 2005 Rick founded the groundbreaking Antebellum Gallery Hollywood, which is dedicated to fetish as art.  Antebellum Hollywood is the only fetish art gallery in America, perhaps the world. 
Antebellum presents fetish, homoeorotic , queer culture, transgressive views, vintage erotic & esoteric salons on a regular basis.
Antebellum is fiercely independent.
the term antebellum is latin- before, (ante) war, (bellum). 
not to be used solely describing the antebellum south.  the term is  a general depiction anytime there is a false sense of serenity before conflict.
 “the calm before the storm.”
