Photographer Paul Freeman recently explained to Homotography that his new book Heroics II is a “reflection on the self-aggrandizement and adornment by men of men in classical art, their heroics down the centuries since the Renaissance being depicted more often as naked godlike sensual fantasies than the brutal acts of mean and ugly men they often were.”
He continues, “This book seeks to comment on societies discomfiture over the naked male in real life, by drawing our attention to the almost blasé acceptance of the very public frontal male nudity in the heroic public art all around us in the everyday downtowns of our great cities.”
Totally deep! Is it wrong that we just saw a bunch of manly, muscular dudes flashing their dicks and butts, as we silently thought to ourselves “this is kind of hot”? You can call us shallow, but according to our new friend Gay Evan, we’re definitely not art critics here at Manhunt Daily.
