Fernando Carpaneda
Fernando Carpaneda was born in Brazil in 1967 and moved to New York City in 1995, where he has lived ever since. Above, he is at the Leslie-Lohman Museum with an exhibit of two of his sculptures.
His work is homoerotic and punk. Above, Homophobia Kills, Case No. 17, 2020.
Another painting, Believers, 2015.

But his most striking works are his sculptures, most of which are miniature but with amazing detail. Above, the works on display at the Leslie-Lohman Museum: Shane Rockford (left) and Chad Hunt (right), both from 2003.

This is Punk Rodin, 2015, a punk version of Rodin's famous sculpture The Age of Bronze.

And its companion piece, The Rebirth of Punk, 2015, is a reinterpretation of Michelangelo's sculpture The Dying Slave.
And this one is just called Punk.
Other mini-sculptures include My Ass to the Pope, 2003 ...
and this punk version of Archangel Gabriel.
In case there's any doubt that he's gay, we end with this sculpture, Bukake. You can find much more of his work on his website https://carpaneda.com.
