Description
Wed., July 2 @ 7:00 Artist Talk Featuring artists participating in Maria: Politics. Sex. Death. MenQueLaCo (Queer Latino Artists Collective) is pleased to present a series of events celebrating its 10th anniversary in the context of the 10th Annual Queer Latino Arts Festival. The festival will consist of two consecutive visual arts exhibitions, and a series of public events, such as poetry readings, film screenings, and artist talks.
Maria: Politics. Sex. Death. Men. curated by Leonardo Herrera, explores the defense mechanisms and survival instincts of young Latino gay men through a psychedelic showcase of Magical Realism, sex and gay iconography. Through the use of candid photography, digital collage, costume, video installation and drawings, the artists delve into the assimilation of San Francisco's Gay community brought on by both outside forces such as politics and the media, as well as from within the gay community itself.
