"As a gay artist, @herbert_list did not only capture moments that were connected to a glance of erotic desire directly, but also developed a visual language to symbolize love and friendship in same-sex couples,” writes Peer-Olaf Richter, manager of the List estate. Couples endure as a persistent theme in List's oeuvre, exploring subjects of love and desire through abstract pairings of objects as well as depictions of human couples. Charged with underlying symbolism, his images not only reflect the evolution in his artistic practice — inspired by his fascination for surrealism and classicism — but served as a way to highlight "something that List could not openly portray in the political climate of his times." 🔗 Read the article at the link in the @magnumphotos bio.
