Join Yale GALA and FFR/Princeton BTGALA for a special tour of this exciting exhibit. View nearly 100 items -- from Antiquity to Modern Contemporary -- which show the same-sex gaze throughout history, with Curator Katz.
For many centuries now, queer people have scoured this most respectable of aesthetic type for secret signs that speak of them, to them.
Items are from the LL collection and on loan from the Library of Congress, The Smithsonian, the NY Public Library and many more institutions: Katz received great cooperation in lending art to this important exhibit.
Jonathan D. Katz was the curator of "Hide/Seek" at the National Portrait Gallery and is a preeminent scholar about the intersection of Art History and Queer History. He teaches at SUNY Buffalo and previously taught at Yale.
The Leslie Lohman Museum is the first and only dedicated LGBTQ art museum in the world, with a mission to exhibit and preserve our art and foster the artists who create it.
