‘Well Hung’ was included in the exhibition For Your Pleasure and is now available to watch on Open Eye Gallery’s Youtube channel. Filmed by Tim Brunsden and commissioned by Open Eye Gallery, this film is a tribute to DuoVision — the visionary curators Martin Green & James Lawler, who have rooted in the LGBTQIA+ community and spent over a decade championing underrated artists, amplifying marginalised voices.

They created spaces that brought what orthodox people cannot normally see into the public eye, where we can kind of exist and thrive“, said artist Caroline Coon. “More than just curation, their practice fosters connections, introducing artists to each other and weaving together a vibrant, self-sustaining creative network, where people can socialize, laugh and freely express themselves.

Through this film, we celebrate Duovision’s organic way of working. “We need to find ways of talking about and championing what the 21st century should really bring to culture. It’s these voices that need to be heard“, said Open Eye Gallery’s executive director Sarah Fisher.
For Your Pleasure: 15 Years Of DuoVision was an exhibition at Open Eye Gallery using photography and film to reflect on and celebrate the fledgling queer club culture of the 90s in the UK, curated by guest curators DuoVision, and supported by Homotopia
