The Little Black Gallery has published its first magazine BOYS! BOYS! BOYS!
Volume 1 features ten photographers from ten countries: Alex Avgud (Russia), Domenico Cennamo (Italy), Michael Epps (USA), Serge Le Hidalgo (Spain), Matheus Katayama (Brazil), Krzysztof Marchlak (Poland), Paul McDonald (UK), Niv Shank (Israel), Michael Søndergaard (Denmark), and Tyler Udall (Canada).
The magazine is another addition to the growing output from The Little Black Gallery and its BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! art platform to promote queer and gay photography.
It now represents more than 60 photographers from 25 countries – including China, India, Iran, Poland, Russia and Turkey where gay rights are repressed and queer lives under constant threat.
Ghislain Pascal, co-founder and co-owner of The Little Black Gallery, curator and editor of BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! sent us this declaration .
“You may ask why do we need a platform and magazine for queer and gay photography?
The simple answer is that queer and gay photography is grossly underrepresented in the fine art world, and even more so in the mainstream media.
BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! is pushing back against this and attempting to make it mainstream and showcasing queer and gay photography in the context of fine art photography.
Our new magazine is part of our efforts to go global, reach more people and make it the norm.
Ghislain Pascal
