Thanks for the share, Simon. Reminds me of all the hoopla here in the US in the late 1980s and early 1990s about National Endowment Of The Arts funding several LGTBQ artists and photographers. Clutch-the-pearls religious zealots annoy the hell out me. But they did help me find some work I wouldn’t have known about if they hadn’t popped off. Love how that works. Same happened in Germany when Hitler did his “degenerate” art exhibition. 2+ million people flocked to see it. Not all to mock it. :-)
