We were interested in nature, art, politics, men, music, drugs, sex and dancing. From the 1970s, we made our own art, clothes, mixtapes, entertainment – creating our own world in what would become known as Sydney’s gay ghetto. – Robert Lake

This inaugural title from queer publisher Omo Books documents an exhibition at Darren Knight Gallery, Sydney. Curator Robert Lake gives some anecdotes of the lives of each of the dead gay artists. Phillip Jacobs (1958-2018) Philip Juster (1952-2004) David McDiarmid (1952-1995) Bill Morley (1949-2007) Jasper Havoc (1952-1979).
