“Unnoticed for a generation, a legendary and mysterious figure from the decade after Stonewall has been quietly living in Europe...

“Before Mapplethorpe there was REX. Just as Tom of Finland realised and gave form to a new ideal of gay masculinity for the generation before him, REX prepared the way for Mapplethorpe and the modern fetish community. He is the last of the legends from that era. A bit like an animal thought extinct (AIDS has wiped away many) he has been found alive continuing doing what he does.”

– Excerpt from an essay by Guy Burch
