SUMMARY:The Romance of Entanglement: Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:The Bureau of General Services—Queer Division is proud to present The Romance of Entanglement (in the era of the Observer’s Paradox)\, an exhibition of new work by eleven queer artists. The exhibition opens June 8 and runs through September 10. \nJoin us for the Opening Reception on Thursday\, June 8\, 6-8 PM \nThe Romance of Entanglement presents the work of artists working across photography\, fiber arts\, painting\, printmaking\, drawing and installation. The work in this exhibit has been made in deep collaboration with larger communities and in communication with queer legacies and histories.  \nWeaving\, quilting and drag are some of the communal and performative traditions artists draw from. These processes speak back to the collaborative art-making traditions of queer and feminist activism and performance. Working with color\, pattern\, texture and symbols\, much of the work in this show signals ecstatic joy and vibrates with abundance.  \nOther work interrogates capitalist systems and the tropes of representation produced by the dominant culture. This work posits queerness as an act of generative disobedience\, offering an alternate lexicon where the erased and invisible become seen\, empowered and celebrated.  \nIn an increasingly hostile landscape for LGBTQ+ people\, this exhibition offers a utopian re-envisioning of the present and a portal into the future. It chronicles the ways we are creating safety for ourselves\, conjuring our utopian visions into existence.  \nPARTICIPATING ARTISTS  \nLiz Collins • Dana Robinson • Natalie Woodlock • Courtney Webster • Meg Turner Voxigma Lo • Whit Forrester • Colin Roberson • Theodora Eliezer Katie Kaplan • Amaryllis DeJesus Moleski
