About the Item
Stone and Press Gallery is excited to offer several works in celebration of the LGBTQ community.
Discover the warmth and depth of "Strangelove," an oil painting on linen by Alessandro Tomassetti. This artwork shows a person not facing the artist, wrapped up in ribbons, against a backdrop of old wooden planks. The ribbons look almost like a hug, but they also seem to be holding the person in place. Tomassetti attention to detail, as well as the textures of the oil, makes the skin and the ribbons look very real. The way he uses light and shadow makes you feel the quiet mood of the painting. "Strangelove" is a simple yet powerful piece that pulls you in to take a closer look and think about what it means to be both strong and gentle.

Alessandro Tomassetti is a Canadian figurative painter based in Barcelona. He is known for his intimate portraits of contemporary men.
Dramatic lighting and a moody color palette compliment his naturalistic rendering technique to capture the vulnerability and sensuality of his male subjects, the likes of which is most often associated with the female form.
Intended to invert the male gaze, Tomassetti’s oil paintings seduce the viewer into appreciating the male form while confronting cultural tenets of masculinity.
