Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Tom of Finland undoubtedly counts among the great and truly influential artists of the latter 20th century. Through his iconic images, he almost single-handedly changed the way gay men were perceived by society, and - maybe even more important - how gay men perceived themselves.The massive oeuvre that he produced over the course of a career spanning nearly six decades is devoted almost entirely to this one topic: men, their bodies, and their spirits. This extraordinary consistency in subject-matter was matched by a life-long passion for the supreme discipline of freehand drawing. All he needed to create a universe of dazzlingly gorgeous hunks was a pencil and a sheet of paper. And he most likely drew every day of his life.Drawing, it seems, was an exercise for his restless imagination and desire. Tom's world was populated by cowboys, mechanics, cops, punks and thugs - all indulging their desires with great camaraderie and without guilt or prejudice. This book assembles a cross-section of these characters as dreamt up by the artist in rough sketches or more carefully executed studies. Mostly they served as preliminary drawings for the highly finished works, many of which were intended for publication. The playful format of an imaginary sketch book lets the viewer take an intimate glance over the artist's shoulder and share in his exuberant joie de vivre.

4to. 195 pp. Illustrated throughout in b/w and color. A new perspective on Tom of Finland, documenting his formative years in 1970s Hamburg. Although Tom of Finland's iconic portrayals of sensual and powerful cowboys, farm hands, soldiers and leathermen are closely associated with American culture, it was in early 1970s Hamburg that the artist first found fame. There he formed important friendships with various protagonists of the city's gay culture; his first ever exhibition was in Hamburg; and he even created a grand mural for the legendary Tom's Bar, which remains the only bar legitimately named after the artist. Regular commissions to design posters and ads for gay events in Hamburg allowed him to quit his day job as advertising executive and launch his artistic career, which led to the creation of the most extensive private collection of his drawings to date. This comprehensive publication delves into these seminal but under-researched years, documenting Tom of Finland's art and friendships from this time. Alongside around 150 illustrations and well researched texts, the book includes a facsimile of the artist's 1955 travel diary in Germany. Please note: Oversized volume: this book will require additional shipping for destinations outside the US; we will ship at cost. Illustrated boards. Light shelfwear. Very Good. …

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Adam Lupton's palette is deliberately restricted to two spectral hues and their tonal variations. Working exclusively with red and blue-colors that evoke emotional extremes-Lupton creates scenes of contemporary urban life that at first appear serene and idyllic. His paintings possess a distinctly cinematic quality, yet behind the composed interiors, striking portraits, and urban vistas, subtle fissures open to reveal existential depths. Published to coincide with the artist's first exhibition at Galerie Judin, this monograph brings together paintings from the past three years and features an introductory essay by art critic and journalist Laura Helena Wurth.Text: : Laura Helena Wurth; Adam Lupton hat sich bewusst entschieden, seine Palette auf zwei Farbtöne und alle ihre Schattierungen zu begrenzen.

Doch hinter den Interieurs, Exterieurs, intensiven Porträts tun sich Abgründe auf - subtile Brüche, die existentielle Tiefen erahnen lasse.

Rilegato. Condition: new. A cura di Judin J. e Karstens P. M. Milano, 2022; ril., pp. 128, 100 ill. b/n e col., cm 24,5x29. Il primo libro dedicato agli straordinari schizzi e disegni a mano libera dell'artista finlandese, icona dell'omosessualità. Tom of Finland è senza dubbio una delle figure più influenti e celebrate della cultura gay del XX secolo. Attraverso le sue immagini iconiche, ha cambiato il modo in cui gli uomini gay erano percepiti dalla società e, forse ancora più importante, di come gli uomini gay percepivano loro stessi. La grande quantità di opere che l'artista ha prodotto nel corso di una carriera di quasi sei decenni è dedicata quasi interamente a questo tema: gli uomini, i loro corpi e i loro spiriti. Questa straordinaria coerenza di soggetto è stata accompagnata da una passione ininterrotta per la disciplina suprema del disegno a mano libera. Tutto ciò di cui aveva bisogno per creare un universo di uomini incredibilmente belli era una matita e un foglio di carta. Il mondo di Tom è popolato da cowboy, meccanici, poliziotti, punk, teppisti e tutti assecondavano i loro desideri con grande cameratismo e senza sensi di colpa o pregiudizi. Questo libro riunisce una sezione trasversale di disegni e schizzi di questi personaggi (appena abbozzati o definiti più nel dettaglio) che per lo più servivano come disegni preparatori per le opere finite, molte delle quali erano destinate alla pubblicazione. Un originale quaderno di schizzi immaginario che offre al lettore uno sguardo intimo nell'opera dell'artista e nella sua esuberante joie de vivre. Libro.…
