This article is mainly focused on the photographic work of Alair Gomes during the 1970s and 1980s in the United States. The analyses include photo essays published in the Performance,The Advocate and Advocate MEN magazines, as well as in Gay Sunshine journal and the Artists Almanac. The five photo essays feature a series of visual elements which characterize the work of Alair Gomes, most notably the sequential and multiple photographic images and print media as space of artistic production. This multiplicity of elements broadens the relationship established by his historiography between photography and homoeroticism. The proposition was to offer a new reading of Alair Gomes’ work, highlighting new aspects along the artistic path of his photographic work
