Over the course of his career, Tom’s work reflected societal changes as they appeared in fashion, commercial design, technology, and architecture. Because of the concentrated and consistent  nature of his project, the peripheral variations that creep in become telling indicators of the ways in which the world was changing over the decades. For all of his many influential qualities, Tom was above all responsive: to his own desires, to the relationships and bodies he observed, and to his materials.

TOM OF FINLAND Untitled (Preparatory drawing), 1989, Graphite on paper, 11 x 8 1/2 inches (27.9 x 21.6 cm), framed: 16 1/2 x 14 x 1 1/2 inches (41.9 x 35.6 x 3.8 cm)

This exhibition celebrates the centennial of the artist’s birth. Featuring never-before-exhibited drawings in pencil and pen and ink, as well as Tom’s personal collages.
