Show Notes
This week it's strong black coffees all round at the BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! gallery in London's Fitzrovia, recording another live gallery episode of The BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Breakfast Club going through the latest happenings in the world of art and queer culture.
Host Graeme Smith and editorial director Ghislain Pascal are joined by two standout voices in queer art and publishing: Michele Robecchi, Commissioning Editor at Phaidon, and Argentinian-born NYC-based photographer Sebastian Perinotti, whose latest series The Mirror appears in the brand-new Volume 10 of our magazine.
Together, we explore how queer artists are positioned within the publishing world — and whether it’s time to move past the labels entirely. Michele shares what really gets a book on the shelf, while Sebastian reflects on Latinx visibility in the art world and how lockdown, identity and cultural politics have shaped his work.
As Pride Month unfolds, we ask what the point is this year with corporate sponsors heading for the exits.
We also look at the very public fallout between Musk and Trump — and what their clash of power and ego could mean for queer people, here and around the globe.
Grab yourself a coffee. It's The BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Breakfast Club. Brought to you by BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! boysboysboys.org @boysfineart @boysgallerycafelondon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
