UK City of Culture
Hull 2017
The UK City of Culture is an award that is given every four years to a city in the UK that demonstrates the belief in the transformational power of culture.
Hull is the City of Culture during 2017. Its programme includes 365 days of cultural events with more than 60 commisions and 25 festivals. The bid for Hull was projected with a global outlook and locally focused, showing the pride that the Hullensians have for their city.
The awarded city sets a team that works hard to deliver 365 days of transformative cultural activity during the period of a year.
The plan for Hull included a 10 year city plan to improve its public realm and architecture. This plan includes the regeneration of the city centre, repaving and reconditioning the centre. The aim is to create a more attractive centre to visitors and bringing business back to the area.
In 2010 Derry/Londonderry was announced as the first city to host the title of UK City of Culture. In 2013, Hull was announced as the winning city to celebrate these festivities. The cities that aspire to be candidates bid against eachother to host this year long event that has proven to have significant social and economic benefits for the area.
The budget for Hull 2017 was of £18 million, initially £13.5 million. It is estimated that City of Culture has brought a boost of £60 million to the local economy in 2017, and an estimated £183 million will be spent between 2015-2020.
The award was set by the Culture Secretary back in 2009. They set an independent advisory panel chaired by Phil Redmond. This panel is in charge of considering the proposed cities to hold the title. The same comitee decided that the event should be hosted every four years starting on 2010.
Nine out of 10 residents have attended, or taken part in, an event as part of Hull 2017 and the city has seen over £1 billion of investment since winning the title in 2013.

SEASON FOUR
The opening season welcomes the world to Hull.
Hull is a gateway to Europe, a city connected to a globalised, digital world. This is a place of migration and transitions; like the tidal movements that govern its rivers, it is in constant flux, often buffeted by outside influences beyond its control.
January - March
The city challenges preconceptions and shows people what Hull is really made of and the many incredible things Hull has made for the world. From art to industry, Hull has long inspired great people and great ideas.
April - June
October - December
Where paths cross and journeys begin, this season explores Hull’s unique place in a constantly changing world. With a distinctly international flavour, new partnerships and collaborations formed as Hull took its place at the centre of UK culture.
The city enters its summer season, packed full of festivals and events that celebrated Hull’s rebellious streak and its freedom of thought, unbound by convention. The third season not only explores the pivotal role Hull played in the emancipation movement, as it helped to ignite the still unfinished global journey towards equality and social justice for all, but it also looks at broader interpretations of freedom as a platform to create and debate, share and enjoy, reflect and reimagine.
The Hull 2017 programme ran from 1 January to 31 December 2017, with events taking place right across the city. The year was split into four seasons, each with something distinctive and intriguing to say about Hull and its place in the world. My main interest and reseach is focused on the Freedom season, specifically the LGBT 50 events that are part of this season.
HULL 2017 THE SEASONS
As the year drew to a close, Hull started looking to the future and exploring what’s next. This season celebrates the qualities that made Hull stand apart in an unforgettable year. Hull’s sense of independence, their individuality, integrity and sense of humour. The events look at how Hull is redefining itself as a key city within the North; a place reborn, with the voice and confidence of a city on the up.
The LGBT 50 events celebrate that 50 years ago, homosexuality was partially decriminalised in the UK. These events run along the Freedom season during Hull 2017. In one week, everyone was invited to parade at the first ever UK Pride at Pride in Hull, to dance and eat cake at a very special Duckie summer tea party, see The House Of Kings And Queens at Humber Street Gallery and be part of a new Yorkshire Dance production by Gary Clarke. I’m particulary interested in the Pride parade and the 50 Queers for 50 Years workshop that led to it.

The first ever UK Pride, Pride in Hull delivers a spectacular week of events, starting with their annual parade featuring 50 LGBT+ icons created by the local community in workshops led by artists Robin Whitmore, Patrick Bullock and Terry Herfield in collaboration with Duckie.
Volunteers were welcome to come to the workshop and help create iconic placards starring the Top 50 British LGBT+ icons from Dusty Springfield to Freddie Mercury, Clare Balding and Quentin Crisp alongside artists Robin Whitmore, Patrick Bullock and Terry Herfield.
MC Amy Lamé and her waiters served tea and cake alongside the London Gay Big Band, The Sugar Dandies, Bird la Bird, Topher Campbell, Victoria Sin, a cake-making contest and a spectacular dance show, Into The Light, brought to you by Yorkshire Dance and Gary Clarke.
A major commission for Hull 2017, by the artist Michael Pinsky, functioned as a 21st-century Speakers’ Corner. Your spoken words were translated to text and relayed on the west tower of Hull’s tidal surge barrier. You could share your message of love and support for LGBT+ communities struggling across the world.
A special concert marking the 50th anniversary of sexual freedom in the UK, broadcast live on BBC Radio 2 and Red Button on TV. It featured a line-up of artists including Will Young, Alison Moyet, Marc Almond, Bright Light Bright Light, Noah Stewart, Tom Robinson and Gay Abandon.
LGBT 50 EVENTS FREEDOM SEASON
50 Queers for 50 Years Workshop / DUCKIE Shop 95 Jameson Street June / July 2017
The Duckie Shop was based for 2 months in Jameson Street. In the centre of Hull. The workshop operated as a walk in centre, where people could come and help. Volunteers: +200 people overall 15-20 volunteers daily Volunteers from Hull 2017 were involved to explain what the event was about and direct people. Residents of Hull came to the shop to show support for the community. There is a great sense of pride and closeness.
“The icons were chosen by asking local residents and communities in Hull, as well as, people that worked with Duckie in London. Over 200 icons were first selected. This number was narrowed down to 50, including events and places. It’s a fair representation of the LGBT community. 1/10 of the icons have something to do with Hull.” “The studio was a fantastic place, very well lit and spacious, right in the middle of the city. It was accessible, and we had our doors open everyday. We experienced a lack of homophobia and transphobia, even less than in London. Everyone in Hull looks out for each other”
A gaggle of artists and designers – including Robin Whitmore, Patrick Bullock, Terry Herfield & Sarah Curry - worked with LGBT groups and volunteers to create 50 Queers for 50 Years. The 50 icons featured Britain’s queer favourites from Dusty Springfield to Freddie Mercury, Clare Balding to Quentin Crisp and a myriad of other stately homos of England.

Crafting process during the 50 Queers For 50 Years workshop. Over 200 volunteers helped to create these resourceful structures and banners to pay tribute to 50 British LGBT icons of our time. The artists tried to stay away from the regular rainbow colours and found inspiration in the Holy Week Catholic Processions in Spain. This truly showed reverence to the icons chosen.

Spanish catholic processions.
“The style is high camp. As in the catholic iconography, highly decorative, sensual and lavish. The use of colours is rich very rich - we assigned each icon a palette of colours that would represent their soul.
We wanted to treat our icons with reverance, as people do with their martyrs, but with a sense of humour. The task to carry the floats also had a significance of penance and reverance to the work of these people”
The aim was to create gorgeously made images and sculptures out of scrap, recycled materials and bits that the community could donate. Turn something basic into something glorious.”
Robin Whitmore Lead Artist
LGBT 50 50 QUEERS FOR 50 YEARS
Violets have been used as a symbol of lesbian love. The Greek poet Sappho, best known for her lyric poems about love and women, described herself and a lover wearing garlands of violets. Lesbian women in the mid20th century would give violets to women they were wooing, indicating their ‘Sapphic desire’.
Artist Georgia O’Keeffe’s delicately painted lilies have been referred to as an erotic lesbian symbol – an intimate depiction of the female genitalia. Although she didn’t encourage these interpretations herself, a new wave of feminists in the 1970s celebrated O’Keeffe for her powerful portrayal of womanhood.
The flower has become a symbol of Oscar Wilde’s life and his relationships. He suggested green was an ‘unnatural’ colour for a flower. It has been suggested that this may have been Wilde’s subtle way of mocking the suggestion that love between two men might be ‘unnatural’ too. Thought of as a code – a badge of homosexuality that only those in the know would know.
‘Lavender boy’ has been a derogatory term for gay men since the 1920s, with any man showing femme (or not-quitehetero) characteristics described as having a ‘streak of lavender’. The use of this flower as a symbol is thought to come from the purple colour of the plant, since this vibrant lavender is the colour you would get if you mixed pink and baby blue, both culturally positioned as ‘gendered’ colours.
The flowers in the LGBT 50 artwork are not just prop, they each have an important meaning behind them. They have been picked for a reason, each with their own symbolism and hidden meaning.
LGBT 50 SYMBOLISM BEHIND THE FLOWERS
Ever since the singer Morrissey burst onto the scene with The Smiths, his sexuality has always been a matter of interest to the British press. Writing sexuallyambiguous songs with themes of love and lust, The Smiths spent a fortune on gladioli for him to hand out at gigs, wave on stage and wear in his back pocket. When asked about the meaning of the flowers, he explained that “flowers are simply innocent and beautiful and have never caused strife for anyone”.
The word ‘pansy’ was first applied to gay men in America who dressed in a flamboyant or feminine fashion. Making a comparison with the bold and bright colours of the flower, this was referred to as ‘pansying up’. The LGBT+ community questioned the negative connotations applied to such words and symbols. Some argue that difference and diversity is empowering and therefore celebrate their queerness, while others wonder why such a beautiful flower should be used as a slur and take back ownership of its meaning.
EARRING This are the most subtle homosexual signifiers. Their location on either the right or left lobe may be indicative of passive or dominant tendencies during sexual encounters.
KEYS Key chains were an understood siginifier for homosexual activity. Depending on whether these were worn on the left or right side of the body, it meant whether the individual desired to play a dominant or passive role during sexual encounters.

LGBT SYMBOLOGY
THE RAINBOW FLAG, commonly known as the gay pride flag or LGBT pride flag, is a symbol of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) pride and LGBT social movements. It originated in San Francisco in 1978. It was designed by Gilber Baker, a openly gay activist. The colours are meant to represent the life of an LGBT person. The flag originally comprised eight stripes; Baker assigned specific meaning to each of the colors The flag was later modified due to the demand of flags and the shortage of pink fabric, reducing it to 7 colours. And in 1979, the turquoise was dropped too, making the stripes an even number.
LGBT people are often referred as colourful and vivid. Ironically, this community and the people within have been demonised and forced to live secretively for decades; leading not such vibrant and bright lives as their personalities may portray.
This code was a color-coded system, employed usually among the gay casualsex seekers to indicate preferred sexual fetishes, what kind of sex they are seeking, and whether they are a top/dominant or bottom/submissive. Wearing a handkerchief on the left side of the body typically indicates the wearer adopts a dominant position. Likewise, wearing it on the right side indicates a preference for a passive or submissive position.
SEX LIFE HEALING SUNLIGHT NATURE MAGIC/ART SERENITY SPIRIT
The collective is a resilient and enthusiastic mix of people that chose colour and brightness over darkness. Colour became an important factor in the gay underground culture, creating secret codes and categories that only the people within the community would recognise. This would make it easier for the colective to identify one of their member and guarantee their safety. CURRENT RAINBOW FLAG DESIGN

Nazarenes giving out sweets
The sweets are kept in a pocket inside the costume The sweets usually have popular sayings and spanish proverbs written on their wrapping. The wrapping is also colour coded depending on which brotherhood of nazarenes you took the sweet from.
During the Holy Week processions in south Spain, the nazarenes give out sweets and other treats to the bystanders. These sweets are made especially for this event. Each brotherhood of nazarenes is responsible of buying these and give them out. The sweets have sayings and spanish proverbs written on it’s wrappers.
OBJECT SWEETS IN SPANISH PROCESSIONS
The Glace fruit drops were invented in Hull
Needler’s was a Hull-based sweet manufacturer. It was founded in 1886 by Frederick Needler when he bought a small confectionery business near Paragon Station. He would later move the business to Anne Street. By 1900 over two hundred different products, mainly boiled sweets and toffees, were being made. This meant that by 1906 larger premises were required, and a new building was erected on Bournemouth Street, off Sculcoates Lane. In 1938, the company’s chemists found a way of producing clear or Glace fruit drops — an area in which the company was to have little or no competition until the mid-1960s.

Following the research from the parade, sweets are a uniting element between Hull and the Spanish catholic processions. An object through which the Spanish have spread their sayings and proverbs to the people for decades. In the same way, sweets can be used in Hull to spread awareness about the LGBT community and their advice as a sort of legacy.

Sweets are something that no many people reject when offered one, so it is a good way to spread the word. In order to tie this object to the LGBT community, these sweets can be colour coded, like the codes used in the 70s by gay males. The wrappers can be categorised according to the rainbow flag colours, and a reinterpretation of their meaning.

Each sweet will carry a secret message, quote or advice by one of the 50 icons. The category will tell what kind of message these icons are spreading as part of their legacy.

Sweets for Hull
DS.21 curated a exhibition to show the artefacts and objects crafted by the students. Along with our object we had to design a flyer with the meaning behind our objects and a description.
This year, the UK celebrates 50 years since the partial decriminalisation of homosexuality. To commemorate this event, the LGBT community was represented in a series of events, during the ‘Freedom’ season in Hull City of Culture 2017. One of these events was Hull Pride Parade which was different to the common pride parades. In Hull’s Pride 2017, artists and volunteers created 50 floats, which represented 50 UK LGBT icons. The floats, which resembled the way religious icons are glorified in processions in Spain, were then carried by volunteers during the parade, paying tribute to these heroes. My objects are sweets, specifically fruit drop boiled sweets and the bag in which they are carried during the parade. These sweets were invented in Hull by Needler’s, a Hull-based confectionary company. This local sweet commemorates the 50 LGTB icons represented in
Hull Pride Parade. Inside the wrappers there are quotes, messages and advice from our heroes. The sweets’ wrappers are colour coded according to the rainbow flag. Each colour serves as a category, with similar meaning to the colours on the flag. The categories are: Red-Sexuality, Orange-Healing, Yellow-Relationships, Green-Identity, Blue-Life, Violet-Spirit. Just as in the religious processions in southern Spain, the sweets are given away by the participants during the parade. This way, the word and advice from our 50 LGTB icons can be spread around the city in a sweet manner.

FRINGE EVENT Throughout Hull 2017 and especially the LGBT 50 events, Hull and its citizens have defied and challenged all those negative perceptions that people around the UK had about this city and its inhabitants. Very much like the LGBT community, Hullensians had been ridiculed and shunned for too long. It is time for them to carry on showing and proving people that Hull it is not backwards, it is not a dangerous place and it doesn’t smell like fish.
PROBLEMS IN HULL:
HOW WE TACKLE THEM:
-
- Creating safe spaces - Keep them busy - Turn it into a competition - Provide visibility, educate - Make people talk - Engage!
Crime Youngsters on bikes Graffitti Hate Crime
Hull is an inviting, friendly, and safe city whose inhabitants are proud to call themselves Hullensians. For this event, I want to challenge perceptions and give a twist to things that we might see as inconveniences. This would allow for a regeneration within the city through communication and collaboration. Giving people a platform to be visible and talk.
