“It is great to be able to shine a light on queer artists as part of LGBT+ History Month with Phaidon and their incredible catalogue of stunning art books. People like Mapplethorpe and Warhol were pioneers. Without Mapplethorpe, the photography world would still be rather vanilla!‘”
Ghislain Pascal, founder of BOYS! BOYS! BOYS!
