I'm not really comfortable with using this word twice in a two-paragraph article. The Nes photos are only homoerotic if you imagine that women don't look at photographs, or that like in the (civilian) USA men never touch one another...or that handcuffed people are sexy... The artist's politics and sensibility are subverted if the viewer is prepped to approach them with prurience. Did Nes himself say that the photos are meant to be sexy?
Praz Delavallade gallery has the sample of Nes I've looked at the longest, maybe I'm missing a portion of his work
[1].
I want to take "homoerotic" out for NPOV and Global but thought I'd say something first...

Very nicely done, thank you. I did look for some reviews of Nes shows on the web after I wrote this and yes, you're right, it was all over the place, "erotic erotic erotic". Maybe there should be something in there countering what he says he's doing with how he's received??? One of the things I kept thinking of when looking at the 'Soldiers' photographs was that they flew in the face of the Western stereotype of the Jewish man as a wimpy bookish praying moneylender with an overbearing mom...
His new work is beautifully done and striking - he took pictures of the poor that we ignore on the street every day and assigned them names of Biblical figures. Who do we respect and revere? Who do we move away from on the bus? It could be treated like a party game ("Name that Biblical figure") or it could make you think really hard.
Thank you, Fireplace. :)

I have a very non-NPOV opinion of people who look at exhausted boys sleeping in their clothes six to a room and can only think of sex. A gay photographer is only capable of making gay photographs? Pfft! ~ Otterpops 13:40, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
I am updating the gallery collection with proper captions - titles, year, size, edition. I am taking them directly from a catalog published by the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. ISBN: 978-965-7161-56-2, Tel Aviv Museum of Art, cat 5. 2007.
I am not adding nor subtracting any of the existing images since i do not know the status of the copyrights. I assume those already added are legitimate.
