“The cleavage raises questions”: queer indeterminacies of gender in an alleged photographic portrait of the painter Francis Bacon

This article is a contribution to the project About Face. About Face is a research group at the University of the Arts London which emerged from the UAL's commitment to encouraging communities of practice to work collaboratively and in cross disciplinary contexts. It brings together artists, theorists, curators and writers to examine what happens when different disciplines and perspectives are brought to bear on the edges of portraiture.
