The scenery, particularly on the Alaskan and Namibian stages, is absolutely beautiful, with
draw distances almost to the moon, and a
massive amount of detail.
Featuring some canonically queer works — from Francis Bacon, David Hockney and Andy Warhol to James Richards and Zanele Muholi - the show also boasted less familiar ones; emerging practitioners Hannah Quinlan and Rosie Hastings, whose
massive drawing The Dudes (2017), the centre - piece of whose show at Arcadia Missa in September, invoked all the thrill and strangeness of a gay community witnessed from a
distance — in a language equal parts Paul Cadmus, Pierre Klossowski and Donna Huddleston — was for me one of the most exciting works of the year.
