description This paper seeks to contribute to the historical reconstruction of the Homosexual Liberation Front through the analysis of photographs and images. The constitution of the heterosexual normative implies a specific historical coding, where the image formation is actively involved in sustaining the gender status and prototypical models of life. The FLH proposed to dispute these constructions as a part of their political practice. In the task of "awareness" the FLH tried to set out a number of negative connotations associated with "homosexual" meanings, as well as to question the system of social and symbolic heterosexual production. Within the various tactics of action and discursive practices, aesthetic production by illustration was a constituent part of their editorial project. This analysis seeks to take the selected images as an original corpus to understand the logic and cultural policies and practices of the organization, their discursive strategies as well as their establishment as a political and public identity.
