A century and more of gay men painting the bodies they wanted to look at runs through this collection. John Singer Sargent studies a model’s head as if nobody else were in the room. Marsden Hartley gives Down East bodies shoulders like harbour walls, and Konstantin Somov sets a boxer glowing. Old auction catalogues called these homosexual paintings. We call them good company.

Then there’s my own work, new pieces made with a painter’s eye and a looser grip on history. Each gay art painting keeps the tricks oil taught everyone: shadow running warm and colour sitting on skin like sun. Painting gay life this way makes a wall feel lived in.

Building a wall of gay men paintings? Start with one large gay canvas painting and let smaller studies gather around it. A gay man painting his lover is the oldest story in the studio, and the gay male painting tradition keeps adding chapters. Paintings of gay men go back much further than this page does, through the old masters and the Renaissance. Full nudes and steamier scenes keep rooms of their own, and so do couples in love.
