This workshop will consider the ways that queer history, art, and curating intersect. Each speaker will give a brief presentation on the ways that they conceptualize curating in their own practice, whether as an artist, curator, professor, and/or author. A brief conversation among the panelists will follow and then open up to the entire audience.
