If you are interested in theoretical and historical aspects of how and why Tom of Finland got to be not only among the most loved gay icons, but also both a national Finnish brand and a piece of high-quality art, here’s the monograph by the Finnish researcher, Harri Kahla.
English title: Harri Kahla “Tom of Finland: Art Because of Sex”
Original title (Finnish): Harri Kahla “Tom of Finland: Taidetta seksin vuoksi”
Written so easily that I read it quickly on one of my recent relatively long train trips.
A lot of marvelous pictures, of course.
