Film and Art Fest presents 365 Pictures with Sexual Content, a visual diary of photographs taken over the course of one year. Freya Najade lives and works in London, and has participated in exhibitions in London, Germany and the USA. If You’re Lucky You Get Old articulately captures this, and brings both straight and queer elderly people, people often underexposed, into the foreground. Talking to these people showed Najade that inner growth is ever-lasting, and that humans beyond the age of seventy continue to love, suffer, long, dream and have sexual feelings.

They were overcoming their lifetime partner’s death, living out their erotic fantasies or dealing with the loss of their sexual desire. To her surprise, the elderly she met were not just proud of their age and the fact that they had made it that far in life, but they were also still falling in love and breaking up. For this project, Najade travelled to Palm Springs, where she stayed for five weeks meeting old people in senior centres.

Over his fifty year career as an artist, he photographed bodybuilders, US servicemen, male prostitutes (and their girlfriends), and his fair share of cultural figures, including Victor Mature, Alan Ladd, Susan Hayward, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Joe Dallesandro, and a vast array of other subjects which have only recently been coming to light.īob began making films in 1954 which he advertised in his own publication (the highly-influential “Physique Pictorial” series) and as the times changed, so did his product: which went from “one reel” super-8 black and white posing-strap movies to 16 and 35-mm films shown in theaters across the country, and then finally to the VHS video format.

In its first year Fringe! pulled off an amazing 2,000 attendees, three critics’ choice reviews in Time Out and widespread and glowing coverage across print and online press. Our mission was to offer a dynamic, representative and unmistakably fresh alternative to other film and arts festivals. Fringe!

With a signature blend of eye opening films, DIY and experimental work, the thoughtful, the provocative and the strange, Fringe will be packing out cinemas, art galleries, pop-up venues and basement clubs. From feature films to experimental art, workshops to interactive walks and wild parties, Fringe! Fest 2013 will be hosting over 40 diverse events to tickle every one of the senses. It is a not-for-profit and run by a team of passionate volunteers. Fringe! is a film and arts festival rooted in London’s queer creative scene and welcoming everyone.
