This landmark exhibition explores gay social and cultural history through the unique personal insights of ten high profile gay figures; Lord Waheed Alli, Alan Hollinghurst, Sir Elton John, Jackie Kay, Billie Jean King, Sir Ian McKellen, Lord Chris Smith, Ben Summerskill, Sarah Waters and Sandi Toksvig, Chair of the selection. Each selector was asked to name six people who may or may not be gay themselves, whom they personally regard as inspirational or as an icon for them. Spanning the worlds of entertainment, art, music, literature, sport and politics, their fascinating and inspirational stories are illustrated by sixty photographic portraits with special commissioned portraits of the selectors by Mary McCartney.
