Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art

Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art The Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art provides a platform for artistic exploration through multi-faceted q Open Friday-Sunday, 12-6 PM.

Created by our founders to preserve LGBTQ+ identity and build community, the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art acts as a cultural hub for the LGBTQ+ community. Our roots trace back to 1969 when Charles Leslie and Fritz Lohman held an exhibit of gay artists for the first time in their SoHo loft. Throughout the 1970s, they continued to collect and exhibit gay artists while supporting the SoHo art communit

y. During the AIDS pandemic of the 1980s, the collection continued to grow as they rescued the work of dying artists from families who, out of shame or ignorance, wanted to destroy it. This led to the formation of the Leslie-Lohman Gay Art Foundation in 1987. In recognition of its importance in the collection and preservation of LGBTQ+ history, the organization was accredited as a museum in 2016. With a collection of over 30,000 objects, the Museum hosts six major exhibitions annually, offers several public programs throughout the year, publishes an arts newsletter, and maintains a research library of over 3,000 volumes. The Museum examines the juxtaposition between art and social justice in ways that provoke thought and dialogue. Located at 26 Wooster Street in the SoHo neighborhood of New York City, admission is open to all with a suggested donation of $10. The Museum is a nonprofit organization and is exempt from taxation under section 501(c)3 of the IRS Code

Operating as usual

Saturday and Sunday will culminate with a fashion pop-up shop featuring q***r designers and artists from NYC and beyond. Swing through, hang out, and shop from 1-5pm at the museum, artists including 
, , , , , and  will bring their wares to the museum, where guests can not only enjoy the work, but take it home for themselves.

These designers and artists all use fashion as a site to explore transness, how clothing can be a source of safety and joy in an ableist world, and how photography and fashion can function as a vital tool for self representation and preservation in BIPOC, q***r, disability communities. 

Some items are free for Black q***r community members, courtesy of the artists. Join us and experience the joy of liberatory design.

07/25/2022

The Leslie-Lohman’s final weekend of summer convenings is getting started on Friday the 29th with a roundtable on disability and joy organized by none other than Chella Man! A trans, deaf, jewish, half-chinese activist, model, actor, artist, and curator, (wow!) Chella has brought people into his world to share not only the struggles that arise from his identities, but also the spaces and moments of profound joy he and his communities cultivate. 

From 6-8 pm at the museum, Chella and friends including Jezz Chung Judith Heumann will gather to discuss how we create spaces that center disability community in joyous ways.

Judy Heumann is a lifelong advocate for the rights of disabled people. She contracted polio in 1949 in Brooklyn, New York and began to use a wheelchair for her mobility. She was denied the right to attend school because she was considered a "fire hazard" at the age of five. Her parents played a strong role in fighting for her rights as a child, but Judy soon determined that she, working in collaboration with other disabled people, had to play an advocacy role due to continuous discrimination. She is now an internationally recognized leader in the disability rights community. 

Jezz Chung is a multidisciplinary artist based in New York City, creating in the intersection of personal transformation and collective change. With a background in movement, performance, and community facilitation, Chung blends elements of their personal history into their work.

This event is possible through collaboration with . Their current exhibit, Pure Joy, features work by disabled visual and performance artists, and is curated by Chella Man.

07/07/2022

This coming Thursday, July 14, from 7:00-9:30pm, we’re pleased to invite you to the opening of Schreber is a Woman, a video installation by the Spanish artist collective El Palomar (Mariokissme and R. Marcos Mota). Our celebratory opening begins with El Palomar in conversation sharing their history and practice as a Barcelona based q***r artist collective. Then stick around for bubbly and the listening session (er, um dance party) of the Schreber soundtrack dance remix album!
Schreber is a Woman is a meditation on q***r and trans history through the figure of Daniel Paul Schreber (1842–1911), a German judge committed to a psychiatric institution in 1894. While in confinement, Schreber experienced visions and heard voices as he reflected on cosmology, sexuality, religion, and a consuming desire for gender transformation, believing it to be divinely orchestrated. Through performance, set construction, and an electronic, dance-inflected soundtrack, El Palomar presents a contemporary envisioning of Schreber’s rich inner world from a transfeminist perspective. Made during the social isolation of the early Covid-19 pandemic, the installation recuperates, for our present moment, the historic struggles for bodily autonomy, self-determination, and joy.

As June comes to an end, we are honored to announce that Kyle Ferari-Muñoz, who sits on the Board of the Leslie-Lohman, and Alyssa Nitchun, the Leslie-Lohman’s Executive Director, have been named as two of New York’s LGBTQ+ Power Players — leaders in government and policymaking, education, healthcare, corporate industry, and social and civic advocacy. 

LGBTQ+ Power Players set a high bar for professional excellence, but they also demonstrate a deep commitment to their communities, encouraging local political engagement and cultivating networks of safe spaces and resources for those in need. Perhaps most importantly, they remind us that true support and solidarity must be practiced and reaffirmed every day, every month, all year long.

We’re grateful for the recognition. Thank you 🤍

Title: March for Women’s Lives organized by the National Organization for Women (NOW)
1989, Washington, DC. Gift of the artist, JEB (Joan E. Biren), in the permanent collection of the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art
 
 
For more than 40 years, JEB (Joan E. Biren) has extensively documented the LGBTQIA+ movement. This photo of LGBTQIA+ activists at 1989’s March for Women’s Lives is a reminder of how abortion access and q***r liberation are intertwined issues. At their core, both movements are about bodily autonomy - the sacred and inalienable right of people to make choices about their bodies and futures. 
 
33 years after this photo was taken, we’re faced with a world where “same-sex” marriage is protected by law, but trans children and athletes face legally mandated harassment via ge***al examinations. Low-income and rural women and child-bearing people already faced difficulty in accessing abortion care, but in states where abortion access is now illegal they will be forced to cross state lines or seek dangerous healthcare. Both are reminders that while important, “legality” cannot be the only measure of our success. 
 
We already know that those who seek to control and exploit will attempt to divide and distract us. As we move into an uncertain future, we remain grounded in also knowing that at their core, LGBTQIA+ liberation and the movement for abortion access are about the same thing: letting people make the best choices about themselves, their bodies, and their futures. 
 
They don’t got us. WE got us.

Colombianizacion is co-presented by Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art and Grace Exhibition Space.

Thursday, May 26th, 8:00 PM, Grace Exhibition Space 182 Avenue C, New York, NY 10009

This performance marks the launch for INDECENCIA! a forthcoming exhibition at Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art curated by Nicolás Dumit Estévez Raful Espejo Ovalles.

Colombianizacion is a project by artist Nadia Granados (b. 1978, Bogotá, Colombia) encompassing performance, video, and social/digital media in a trenchant analysis of the gender performativity of men in narco culture. Granados’ project draws on primary sources related to the violence propagated by the political elites that have been transforming economic, social and cultural structures in Colombia.

Nadia Granados is a Colombian artist using performance, experimental cinema, music, multimedia, web art and cabaret. She is known as La Fulminante. Her artistic practice questions the manipulative strategies that exist behind the representational systems that circulate through the media, making a direct criticism of these structures of symbolic power, and using resources associated with gender performativity and communication guerrillas. She is interested in decolonial thought and the anti-imperialist struggle from a sudaca-kuir-transfeminist perspective. .

Nicolás Dumit Estévez Raful Espejo Ovalles treads an elusive path that manifests itself performatively through creative experiences that he unfolds within the quotidian. Nicolás has received mentorship in art in everyday life from Linda Mary Montano, a historic figure in the performance art field. Residencies attended include P.S.1/MoMA, Center for Book Arts, Yaddo and MacDowell. Born in Santiago, Dominican Republic, in 2011 he was baptized as a Bronxite: a citizen of the Bronx. Nicolás is the founding director of The Interior Beauty Salon, an organism living at the intersection of creativity and healing: www.interiorbeautysalon.com

Also curated by Nicolás, ROCKING THE MARKET, through June 11th at Bronx River Art Center (BRAC)

Devan Shimoyama's 'Ready For a Revolution, 2018' is currently on view in the group exhibition “Not Me, Not That, Not Nothing Either” curated by Rachel Beaudoin and Nirvana Santos-Kuilan on view at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art from February 4 - June 25, 2022.

'Not Me, Not That, Not Nothing Either' presents the work of 11 contemporary q***r artists who employ fragmentation as a generative and subversive method of opposing cis-heteronormative frameworks. Drawing its title from the 1980 text Powers of Horror, in which theorist Julia Kristeva examines the physical and psychic boundaries between oneself and the world, the exhibition offers a lens into the liminal spaces of q***r subjectivities. The works in Not Me, Not That, Not Nothing Either position q***rness as neither subject nor object, but rather as a form of relation that is at once of primary importance and incidental to individuation.

“Each of these artists in the exhibition has created playful, exploratory works that push the bounds of their respective media and refuse the confines of categorization.” - Co-curator Nirvana Santos-Kuilan

“There is so much to learn from each of these artists in how we approach and continue to imagine futures for our individual and collective q***rness.” - Co-curator Rachel Beaudoin

Participating artists include: Math Bass, Diedrick Brackens, A.K. Burns, Jibz Cameron, Theresa Chromati, KC Crow Maddux, Troy Michie, Christina Quarles, Devan Shimoyama, Ceaphas Stubbs, and Jade Yumang.
