George Platt Lynes began his career photographing celebrities, and it\u2019s those portraits along with his extravagant fashion work that he\u2019s best remembered for today. However, George\u2019s heart, his passion, and his greatest talent lay elsewhere, in his work with the male nude. This work, sensuous and radically explicit for its time, has only recently begun being fully discovered and appreciated for the revolution that it represents \u2014 a man capturing his fantasies as a gift, a window to a future his camera saw coming before anyone else. Hidden Master<\/i> features a stunning collection of photography from the 1930s-50s, uncovering the life of Lynes less known: his gifted eye for the male form, his longterm friendships with Gertrude Stein and Alfred Kinsey, and his lasting influence as one of the first openly gay American artists.<\/p>\n<\/div>
