A Gay Collection

Chez Est Gallery, Hartford
In part one of the A Gay Collection series, we explore unknown and unseen pieces by Provincetown Gay Artist R. Chris (Rick Chris). His gay-themed illustrations feature bold colors and high-contrast scenes that celebrate gay male bodies, gay sexuality, and gay lifestyle.
A Gay Collection is a three part exhibition series of the private collection of a Connecticut gay man who anonymously donated his entire art collection to the New Haven Pride Center. Works in the collection span over 50 years of collecting and include works from both prominent gay artists, sketches, posters, and collectible artwork. All artwork sales will benefit the New Haven Pride Center’s programming and a Hartford based animal rescue as requested by the donor.
