AMAR SINGH CONTINUES TO LEAD INDIA'S NATIONAL EFFORT TO END LGBT+ CONVERSION THERAPY
After homosexuality was legalised in 2018 across India, a ruling Amar Singh championed, he was inspired by the supreme court case which led to LGBT+ victory. Amar spent years researching funding, reaching out and building a team to lead the supreme court case he conceived to end the immoral practice of LGBT+ conversion therapy.
Amar has covered all costs associated with this case and recruited human rights lawyers Ravi Kant & Ankita Surabhi along with the brave petitioner, friend & fellow LGBT+ activist Prince Manvedra Singh Gohil. Together they continue their fight for LGBT+ rights

VANITY FAIR
Amar Singh’s eponymous Islington gallery has a simple but laudable ethos, specializing in exhibitions of LGBTQ and female artists with diverse, progressive narratives. Raised in London but a member of the royal Kapurthala family of Punjab, Singh was one of many political campaigners who made up a global coalition that last month recorded a landmark legal victory in India, overturning the country’s 2013 criminalization of gay sex. Now, Amar Gallery is turning to one of the lesser-known histories of art, with an exhibition of the women behind Abstract Expressionism in 1950s and 60s America.
