Two Satyrs, 1987. Graphite on paper. Signed and dated on the lower right, "olaf 1983". 14 x 22 in. (35.5 x 55.9 cm) Notes: Olaf Odegaard (1938–1997), professionally known as simply Olaf, was an American erotic illustrator, writer, and playwright. In his graphic work, Olaf often drew inspiration from the leather subculture of San Francisco’s South of Market district. He is best known for his detailed and stylized erotic illustrations of men, particularly devils and satyrs. Through his BDSM imagery he has explored fantasy, mythology and same-sex desire. In 1996, the Tom of Finland Company released Beasts and Beauties: The Erotic Art of Olaf, a major survey of his work. Olaf passed away in 1997, leaving behind a body of work that is now held in institution collections such as the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art, the Leather Archives & Museum in Chicago, and the Tom of Finland Foundation.
