Paul Cadmus et Jared French PaJaMa En 1926, au College Amherst, Jared French (1905-1988) fait la connaissance du peintre Paul Cadmus, qui a été brièvement son amant et qui est devenu un ami de toujours. Après avoir quitté Amherst, Jared French occupa un emploi à Wall Street, puis fit le tour de l'Europe avec Cadmus entre 1931 et 1933.

Pendant les années 1930 et 1940, il fut un membre du cercle de Cadmus qui comprenait des figures littéraires et artistiques gay telles que George Platt Lynes, Lincoln Kirstein, George Tooker, Glenway Wescott, et Monroe Wheeler. En 1937, French épousa Margaret Hoening, une amie de Paul Cadmus.

Paul Cadmus - Beauty's all Things B.

Cadmus, to our enormous benefit, understands that beauty is bodies, brains, buttocks, bathtubs, bicycles, Bach, bravado and bad behaviour; beauty's all things B.

Arts >> Cadmus, Paul. American painter Paul Cadmus is best known for the satiric innocence of his frequently censored paintings of burly men in skin-tight clothes and curvaceous women in provocative poses, but he also created works that celebrate same-sex domesticity. Born in New York City on December 17, 1904 into a family of commercial artists, Cadmus studied at the National Academy of Design and the Arts Students League.

He lived in Europe from 1931 to 1933, where he traveled with artist Jared French and where he produced his first mature canvases. In the 1930s, Cadmus became the center of a circle of gay men who were prominent within the arts in New York City. This circle included his brother-in-law, Lincoln Kirstein, who helped found the American School of Ballet, and the photographer George Platt Lynes, for whom Cadmus frequently modeled. In the early 1930s, Cadmus worked for the Public Works of Art Project, which was later incorporated into the WPA. <a href="/glossary.php? <a href="/glossary.php?
