To tie in with LGBT History month, West London's Graffik Gallery has commissioned some of today’s best emerging and established artists, gay and straight to produce portraits of people who they believe have been an inspiration to the gay community.
Portraits of such figures as Marlon Brando, Michelangelo, Marilyn Monroe and Joan Collins serve as triggers of memory for both artist and audience. Gaze aims to reach beyond the gay community by getting together gay and straight artists from all walks of life and styles, from traditional portraiture to graffiti, glass and multi-media while also challenging people’s perception of what actually makes a gay icon.
Private View: 29 February from 6.30 pm – 10.30 pm
