SLM Stockholm presents
the BASTILLE
The BASTILLE is a party event for filthy pigs to honour the artwork of Frank Webber. Since '91 SLM Stockholm hosts this event for fans of BASTILLE to come together and play.
No Bastille in 2024
Sorry pigs but there won't be a Bastille @ SLM Stockholm in 2024. To arrange the party takes loads of time and energy, and this is done on a fully volontary basis by a very limited number of club members who are into the theme. Thus we have decided to take a break in 2024 to recharge and reload... :o)
Strict dresscode
Rubber & Dirty skin only. Show respect to the theme and other guests by wearing the proper dresscode. Wear heavy boots or waders. Sneakers, sports gear and lycra are not part of the theme. View the gallery below for inspiration. If not properly dressed admission might be denied.Shower is available but bring a towel.
Membership required
Remember to apply for membership before we open for the night.

Frank Webber a.k.a. BASTILLE
BASTILLE is a pseudonym for the late artist Frank Webber which he took from the name of the Paris Metro station.
Frank was born in Hackensack, New Jersey, on July 14 1929.
After high school, he studied illustration at the Pratt Institute in NYC. He later moved to Paris on a scholarship to practice metal engraving at the studio of John Friedlander.
In 1959 he started to work as an illustrator for French fashion magazines and a few years later, began to specialize in billboard illustrations for high-profile architectural projects. Frank died in 1990 of leukemia. After his death, he quickly became an icon of many homo-cult-groups who had gotten pretty tired of the prudism-wave that dominated homo culture throughout the 80's. Parties in his name and radiating the atmosphere in the same way as his artwork were held in Stockholm, Copenhagen, Berlin, Paris... The first Bastille party at SLM Stockholm took place back in 1991. |

SCHWEIN PARIS
SCHWEIN is a collective scent, a colour, a desire. SCHWEIN is a proposal for a walk along the footprints left by BASTILLE in gay erotic subculture.
SCHWEIN is a book by Pig-Prod, supported by Didier Lestrade, Ad Schuring, Rudi Bleys, the creators of Recoil.557, Projet X, IEM and the Revolt Press archives in Stockholm.
SCHWEIN is a rendez-vous, a collective action destined to reveal the universe of Bastille through each page.
