Though Pride month 'technically' ends today, Pride for LGTBQ+ folk is year-round and this week's guest embodies that to the fullest. Ghislain Pascal is the co-founder of London's Little Black Gallery (@tlbgallery) and creator of BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! (@boysfineart) a publication and platform dedicated to promoting queer and gay photography including exhibitions, books, a bi-annual magazine, photography courses, competitions, and an online art platform.
It now represents more than 65 photographers from 30 countries - including China, India, Iran, Poland, Russia, and Turkey where gay rights are repressed and queer lives are under constant threat.
In our conversation, we talk about the challenges of promoting queer artists, how he combats pervasive institutional homophobia, being kicked off Instagram, building a global platform, and his advice for artists everywhere.
Head over to the BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! site to purchase the magazine and original works by emerging and established gay and queer photographers.
