Retrostuds of the Past: Focus on Rydar Hansen

Now, this guy was one superstud, but also, from what I have read, multitalented. Born in Germany as Wolfgang Praegert in 1957, of an artist father, and the young Wolfgang apparently exhibited acrylic paintings at exhibitions in both France and Germany. He lived in Paris (to which all artists gravitate at some point), and then emigrated to New York City. He studied opera there briefly. (I am impressed. I wonder if he was a tenor, a baritone, or a bass.)

He then got into gay porn, making his first appearance in Chain Reactions after moving to Los Angeles. Now, why would he get into porn? He was one studly macho guy (uncut, hairy chest, but also the Marlon Brandoesque lips, woof!), of course, but maybe the art and the opera didn't quite work out as well for him.

He worked with Al Parker for Surge Studios, making appearances in Head Trips and Strange Places, Strange Things.

He was even Mr. California Drummer in 1985 (showing his versatility), and, speaking of leather, he showed up at the First Annual Gay Erotic Film Festival and Awards in leather regalia leading Chris Burns on a leash. Chris then sat on a dildo. Ah, those were the days…


But those were the eighties, and the AIDS epidemic was in full swing. Rydar, like so many gay porn stars of the era, succumbed to complications from the AIDS virus. He died in 1989 in Ventura, California. Before the died, he did much traveling, and he even made a feature-length biographical video showcasing the places he visited and his reactions to them.

My favorite Rydar moment, from Strange Places, Strange Things: Rydar Hansen lies on a doctor's (Latin hunk Melchor) examination table, next, thinking about circumcision to please his lover. The doctor convinces Hansen against it through a series of foreskin games that include docking (interestingly photographed for skin fans). Gotta love that uncut cock!

The action and the intensity between the two men is wonderful and it works well between these two that know how to have with their hooded eagles.
