QUEER TODAY, GONE TOMORROW: THE LOST AND LOVED VENUES OF GAY LONDON 📍 Velorose Gallery, Barbican 🗓 27 June – 6 July 2025 12-6pm 🎉 Private View: Wednesday 3 July, 6–9pm (sign up required) 🌐www.recognition-art.com/pride-exhibition-2025   Hi Jean-Francois    I’m thrilled to invite you to the Pride Celebration Private View for QUEER TODAY GONE TOMORROW: THE LOST AND LOVED VENUES OF GAY LONDON - Thursday 3rd July, 6–9pm at the wonderful Velorose Gallery, Barbican.   RSVP now at: recognition-art.com/privateview   If you can't make then, the show is running from 27th June-6th July 12-6pm. Full details at recognition-art.com/pride-exhibition-2025   This exhibition celebrates the venues that shaped London’s gay community — the iconic bars, clubs and spaces where queer lives were forged, friendships made, and futures changed. It also honours those still standing, fighting on with pride in a city where closures continue to threaten queer spaces. Through symbolic and map-based artworks, I reimagine these places with love, defiance and remembrance.   The show is part of the London Festival of Architecture and proudly supports Switchboard and their Every Conversation Counts 2025 Pride campaign.   I’d love to see you at the Private View – a joyful evening of art, community and Pride. Feel free to bring a friend, but do RSVP via the link above so we can plan ahead.   Happy Pride! RECOGNITION www.recognition-art.com Instagram @recognition_art
