Queer culture celebrated at the very classic Tate Britain
“Queer British Art 1861-1967” looks at the photographs, paintings, drawings and sketches of artists who marked their era when LGBT rights hadn’t even been heard of.
The “Queer British Art 1861-1967” exhibition looks at the artistic treatment of the queer, gay, lesbian genre through the works of artists including Duncan Grant, David Hockney, John Singer Sargent and Dora Carrington. From a political, erotic and intimate perspective, this grand premier questions the interpretation of gender at a time when the concept of LGBT had yet to see the light of day.
“Queer British Art 1861-1967”, until 1st october 2017, Tate Britain, Millbank, Westminster, London SW1P 4RG, UK
