Great Photography by Andrei Vishnyakov !



I'm sure I've seen him on Tumblr 

Whilst browsing Gays The Word wall on Facebook I was thrilled to see that one of my favourite authors Patrick Gale has a new book coming out in a couple of weeks . As I browsed some more , I came across a link to Polari Magazine  who are featuring the work  of Russian photographer Andrei Vishnyakov , where the introduction observes...

''When I look at Andrei’s images I see very little Mapplethorpe, Pierre et Gilles or Bianchi influences here, but rather echoes of Physique Pictorial and Vim, the magazines from the early part of the 20th century when homoeroticism was veiled under the guise of health and fitness. ''
