Recenzii

In this first book to be published on criticism and theory regarding queer culture, Phaidon has certainly set the bar high ... a significant resource' Aesthetica 'brilliant ... a gorgeous coffee table book that showcases queer culture from nightclubs to high art ... ambitious and timely' Diva '[an] expertly researched combined reader and artist directory' Art Review 'big, queer, complex and sumptuously done-up ... over 500 beautiful illustrations [...] ranging from anonymous pornographic photos to some of the greatest paintings done by humans in the last 125 years ... a heady and thoroughly pleasing mix up of low and high culture ... [a] landmark tome ... sagely curated' Dazed & Confused
