Synopsis

Queer narratives have long been overlooked--or actively erased--by art history. In recent years this has begun to shift, with a more intentional effort to apply a queer lens to the visual arts. Queer Art expands this conversation, recognizing queerness not as a genre but as a gesture--defined by resistance to convention.Spanning generations and geographies, Queer Art paints a rich picture of LGBTQIA+ visual culture, interrogating reductive views that equate queerness with homoeroticism and proven identity. Thematic chapters explore key concerns--selfhood, resilience, liberation, and the future--as expressed in the work of artists such as Keith Haring, Hélio Oiticica, Catherine Opie, Xiyadie, and others. The result is a vital and expansive vision of queer artistry and aesthetics.
