TOM OF FINLAND Untitled, 1974, Graphite on paper, ©1974-2020 Tom of Finland Foundation Commissioned by Harald Tangermann and Peter Daun for Toms Saloon in Berlin

 

Tom’s first ever exhibition was in Hamburg in 1976 and he did many commissions for German clients. The gallery has  recreated this first show and devoted a publication to these seminal years.

Through his iconic drawings, Tom of Finland almost single-handedly changed the way Gay men were perceived by society, and – maybe even more importantly – how Gay men perceived themselves. The artist, who died in 1991, would have turned 100 this year.
