About this artwork
In “The Queen’s Vernacular: A Gay Lexicon” Bruce Rodgers defines Glory Hole as “a hole drilled or carved between the partitions of two toilet stalls in a men’s room and used for sex (“That’s the glory of love.”) glory holes are attractive to those who wish anonymity mixed with the sensation of danger. Related: Christmas Caroling (parody of the Christmas message “Gloria in excelsis Deo” = Glory to God on high) testing out all the new glory holes in…
town. Looked at aesthetically, this grouping of voids stacked up like the piles of stone used to construct an Inuksuit (an Inuit marker or guidepost) simply throws perspective (and implicitly logic) right out the window to create a witty (if confrontational) little multiple that was first conceived in 2014 but only printed in 2025. Each will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

Bruce Eves was the recipient of the Governor-General’s Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Visual and Media Arts in 2018 and was the subject of Peter Dudar’s feature-length documentary “Bruce Eves in Polari” that premiered at The Power Plant. Eves was ranked 26th on the Alt-Power100 list compiled by ArtLyst (UK). In the past he was assistant-programming director at the Centre for Experimental Art and Communication (CEAC) in the late 1970s; and throughout the 1980s was the co-founder and chief archivist of the International Gay History Archive (now housed in the Rare Book and Manuscript division of the New York Public Library). Eves continues an active practice of exhibiting and curating on the cutting-edge, and in recent years has pushed the envelope further by expanding his work to include spoken-word projects performed monthly at the Black Eagle bar’s Dirty Queer Poetry Nights. Eves lives and works in Toronto and seeks representation. His CV can be viewed at www.bruceeves.net
