The Queer Archive is an online commercial gallery, a film production company and multidisciplinary platform that supports and promotes queer artistic expression through both contemporary visual art and independent film production. Established in 2013, it operates as a hybrid space combining exhibition, sales, and cultural programming.
The gallery works with emerging and established artists to present their work through pop-up exhibitions and to sell work that engages critically with queer identities and perspectives, fostering a global network of collaborators.
Its film division is led by Konstantinos Menelaou, whose creative direction shapes the production of fiction and documentary works characterized by emotional immediacy and formal experimentation. His films reflect a consistent emphasis on authorship and narrative integrity, contributing to broader conversations around queer representation in cinema.
Beyond production, The Queer Archive curates film screenings and presents The Queer Archive Award at the ASVOF Festival in Paris, which recognizes innovation in queer fashion film.
Through its dual focus on film and visual art, The Queer Archive combines cultural engagement with commercial activity, offering a structured yet flexible platform for the presentation and distribution of queer creative work.
