Founded by Artiq in 2018, Queer Frontiers is an exhibition that brings together extraordinary artistic talent and rising stars to raise funds for charities with causes close to the LGBTQ+ community. Since its foundation, the exhibition has raised over £45,000, supporting vital organisations such as Switchboard, Outside In and the Albert Kennedy Trust.
This year’s exhibition is titled Queer Myths, Queer Futures and will feature new work by over 20 LGBTQ+ and ally artists alongside a series of limited-edition prints produced exclusively for the show. Celebrating a vibrant spectrum of queer identities, histories and narratives, the exhibition will present works that reshape the past, challenge the present or envision a new future for the queer community. Exhibiting artists will include Elio Mercer, Mazahir Hussain, Kevin Aanafi-Brown and Olivia Mansfield, with more to be announced.
All artworks are for sale, with proceeds being split between Rainbow Railroad, a global not-for-profit organisation that helps at-risk LGBTQI+ around the world get to safety, and the artists.
This year, the specialist insurance firm and dedicated art supporter, Hiscox, return as a sponsor with support from family-owned property company Soho Estates.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a programme of events, including performances and a panel discussion with leading cultural thinkers.
