A trip through the subversive extremities of sexuality, a celebration of romantic gestures and an immersive experience recreating the tension of being in a football firm... here’s your list of summertime art happenings.

Is that… sunshine outside? I think it is – and with a jam-packed month of great shows, hopefully, you don’t need much convincing to leave the house. Defiance balanced with tenderness runs through this month’s art show selection. It got me thinking about how we can be hard and soft, that we can fold under the hard exterior of our shells, and that it makes incredibly beautiful art and photography when we do. In a brutal world, seeing how (much of) humanity continues to show up for one another is awe-inspiring. Art is the answer, and these shows allow me to continue to believe that. So without further ado, here’s the first of your summer list of art outings.
