GUTS Gallery is nestled in the heart of Hackney, where it neighbours a motorbike repair shop, a railway track and an off-licence. ‘GUTS’ is an acronym for “Grafting Under Tory State”, an appropriate slogan for the gallery, which has taken repeated aim at the inequalities of the art world since its inception in 2021. The gallery’s founder, Ellie Pennick, is a self-described queer, working-class Northerner who has cultivated a space now synonymous with accessibility, transparency and verve. In this context, GUTS Gallery’s latest show, Saints and Sinners, is electric, charged with the reality of meaningful LGBTQIA+ representation.
