This is one of two works I own by Ohio based printmaker, Andy Au. It's a monoprint entitled, "Turret 54". I love it. It references the power of Leonardo da Vinci's "Man," played against the suggestive sexuality of the gas-masked (rubber bondage) fetish in a doggy style position. I don't find it sexually stimulating in the least. But I appreciate the way it challenges contemporary mores in the same way that da Vinci's man hit his 16th century contemporaries. It's also a beautifully executed print.
