Lovely interesting book. I enjoyed it very much. I am a great fan of the museum and nice to see where and how it all came about.

Great coffee table book - text is a wonderful read of Charles Leslie's journey as a gay man in the fifties to the turn of the 21st century.

Fascinating. Very interesting information about a life I should have known about but didn't.

Great publication of amazing art.

Stunning book. I'm so excited my picture of Charles is in it.

Bruno Gmünder has published a very elegant homage to the life and work of Charles Leslie, one of the key figures in the current serious interest in gay art that is finding acceptance not only with the populace but also with art museums, art magazines, books, and films. As is one of the fathers of modern New York's SoHo neighborhood, he has for many years collected art by gay artists and art with gay themes and the selection in this book is astonishingly large and representative. Charles and his partner Fritz Lohman are the founders of the first museum for gay and lesbian art in the world.To pull this biography and catalogue together Bruno Gmünder turned to the German-Irish publicist Dr. Kevin Clarke whose background includes degrees in musicology and literature from Freie Universitat Berlin and the University of Milan following which he served as a journalist for the newspaper `Der Tagesspiegel' and the magazines `Bunte' and `Playboy,' as well writing for the opera magazine "Orpheus" and "De Groene Amsterdammer" from the Netherlands. His PhD thesis was on Emmerich Kalman and the Transatlantic Operetta 1928-1932. Clarke founded the Operetta Research Center Amsterdam of which he is the director. He teaches at the Conservatory of Tilburg and was curator of the 2010 exhibition Erik Charell and the Homosexuality of Operetta at the Schwule Museum Berlin. From 2011-2013 he was editor-in-chief of the German magazine `Manner.' His books include GLITTER AND BE GAY, THE WHITE HORSE INN, BEARDS: AN UNSHAVEN HISTORY and PORN: FROM ANDY WARHOL TO X-TUBE and have won awards and popularity among art aficionados. THE ART OF LOOKING is precisely that, as one current television series `LOOKING' demonstrates - a survey both in real time and in memories and in collections of memorabilia and sculpture, painting, drawing, cartoons, and photography that mimics the roving eye of the man on the street.The design of the book is impressive, the collection of works inclusive, and the history the book traces make it one of the more important volumes of gender studies available today. Including interviews with Charles Leslie adds enormously to the pleasure of the survey the book takes on, and when coupled with the informed art history and social history offered by Dr. Clarke the result is an exceptionally interesting tome.
