Interesting question. I like to mention French as the artist/photographer where credit is due. French was one of the founders of first Lüger Studio (where he published mainly drawings) and later Colt Studio. Colt Studio exclusively published French's photography and drawings in post-order prints, magazines, calendars and books, until 2003, when he sold the company. But French also published artbooks through his other company State of Man: less porn, more art. So he founded Lüger, Colt and State of Man especially to publish whatever art he wanted to make Through his work that he published through Colt and State of Man his images became the benchmark for hypermasculine erotic photography. And in a way he still defines the iconography of what we admire in male porn! His impact and influence on gay male visibility compares only with Tom of Finland. This is what French himself had to say: “I see my work as erotica, not porn. Frankly, pornography bores me, because 99.9 per cent of it is lacking the one thing that makes it successful. And that is, it’s not erotic! It’s people doing a job for X amount of dollars in front of the camera. Pornography does not interest me. Photography interests me. And making marvellous-looking men look their most impressive. That’s what I’ve always been about.” So to just see him as a pornographer would be a huge underestimation of his work and influence. Just download this magazine and read his interview: thank you Maleart

Myles Antony was born and raised in Dublin, where he studied art under the noted Irish painter, Fergus O'Ryan. While still in his teens, Myles moved to - what was then - 'Swinging London'. Within a short period of time he joined the John Stephen Organisation, founders of the Carnaby Street phenomenon, becoming Art Director after a few years. When the wiz kids of Carnaby Street grew up, Myles moved on to Graphic Design, creating TV logos, record sleeves and movie posters. In 1985 he held his first solo exhibition at the Edinburgh Festival, which was a great success. Since then he has exhibited yearly at Adonis Art. Together with publications of Myles' work as greetings cards and limited editions, exhibitions have also been held in Amsterdam at the famed Rob Gallery and in Berlin at the Mr B. Gallery. His works were also selected for exhibition at the Royal Hibernian Academy, Dublin, in 1990. Myles Antony has broken barriers in his bold approach to the use of watercolour, being true to, and in great control of, the medium. The colours he uses, the delicate lines, the soft focus imagery, give his work character and vision. With keenly observed figures in search of an erotic ID, each and every one is a portrait of a real person. The paintings are at times daring and amusing, but always warm and human.
