Description :
We love and strongly recommend this beautifully curated book. Celebrating the massive and lasting global impact of LGBTQI+ artists, a book like this is long overdue! Russell Tovey & Robert Diament, co-hosts of Talk Art podcast.
Celebrate the LGBTQI+ community with this vivid collection of artworks that charts queer voices from around the world.
The twentieth century saw key shifts for the LGBTQI+ community across the western world: from the Stonewall uprising to the first pride parades and homosexuality law reforms . The years following these milestone moments have seen queer life face new challenges, celebrations, injustices and liberations.
As ever, this journey has been closely mapped by art and culture . Artists working across all mediums - from painting, performance, digital and beyond - have captured key moments, from the HIV/AIDS crisis and the rise of drag, to marriage equality and the fight for trans liberation. The artists include:
[*]Andrew Logan, sculptor and founder of the Alternative Miss World party
[*]Leading artists David Hockney, Nicole Eisenmann and Zanele Muholi
[*]Late greats Greer Lankton, Andy Warhol, Francis Bacon and Tom of Finland
[*]Pioneers of Queer Cinema Derek Jarman and Sir Isaac Julien
[*]Ground-breaking photographers Nan Goldin, Ajamu X, Wolfgang Tilmans and Catherine Opie
[*]Contemporary art stars Sin Wai Kin, Zackary Drucker and Clifford Prince King
With nearly 200 artworks selected by leading LGBTQI+ curator Gemma Rolls-Bentley, this book mixes the high-brow with the low, gallery stalwarts with Instagram stars, and the racy with the fabulous. This is a unique celebration of queer life - a must-have for the LGBTQI+ community, art lovers and anyone interested in the culture surrounding queer identity.
