Gay life and culture : a world history / by Aldrich, Robert,1954-(CARDINAL)733514;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 364-377) and index."In the years since Stonewall, the world has witnessed an outpouring of research, critical inquiry, and re-interpretation of gay life and culture. This book draws on groundbreaking new material to present a comprehensive survey of all things gay, stretching back to ancient Sumeria and ranging to the present day. Critically acclaimed historian Robert Aldrich and ten leading scholars juxtapose thought-provoking essays with an extensive selection of images, many never before seen. This masterful combination reveals the story behind gay culture from the industrialized world to the remotest corners of tribal New Guinea. Among the contributors are noted names in GLBT studies such as Brett Beemyn (author of Bisexuality in the Lives of Men), Charles Hupperts (expert on classical antiquity at the University of Amsterdam), Helmut Puff (University of Michigan expert on the medieval world), and Florence Temagne (author of A History of Homosexuality in Europe). The book covers such topics as the Old Testament relationship between Jonathan and David, the Age of Confucius, Native American berdaches, Polynesian mahus, Berlin in the '20s, Stonewall and the disco-flavored hedonism that followed, and the advent of AIDS, Act Up, and Angels in America. This book is an important contribution to understanding what makes gay life and culture universal throughout human culture and across time." http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0624/2006903208-d.html.

Pacifico Silano : the eyelid has its storms ... by Silano, Pacifico,1986-photographer.(CARDINAL)855865; Lavalette, Shane,1987-writer of introduction.(CARDINAL)783613; Light Work (Organization : Syracuse, N.Y.),organizer,host institution,publisher.(CARDINAL)188261; Robert B. Menschel Media Center,host institution.(CARDINAL)313642;
"Pacifico Silano's The Eyelid Has Its Storms ... borrows its title from a Frank O'Hara poem. O'Hara's musings and observations about everyday queer life inspired Silano's artistic practice. 'The eyelid has its storms, ' the poem begins. 'There is the opaque fish-scale green of it after swimming in the sea and then suddenly wrenching violence, strangled lashed, and a barbed wire of sand falls onto the shore.' O'Hara's deeply visual poem, like Silano's work, evokes duality--in memory, in the present, and future, shimmering beauty and umbral violence often occur at once. Through the appropriation of photographs from vintage gay pornography magazines, Silano creates colorful collages that explore print culture and the histories of the LGBTQ+ community. His large-scale works evoke strength and sexuality while acknowledging the underlying repression and trauma that marginalized individuals experience. Born at the height of the AIDS epidemic, Silano lost his uncle due to complications from HIV. 'After he died, ' says Silano, 'his memory was erased by my family due to the shame of his sexuality and the stigma of HIV/AIDS around that time period.' Silano set out to create art that reconciled that loss and erasure. Silano's exhibition somberly contemplates such pain and photography's role in the struggle for queer visibility, while celebrating enduring love, compassion, and community. In collaging, Silano decisively fragments, obscures, and layers images that he has rephotographed from these magazines. He reassembles and ultimately recontextualizes these images, removing the overtly explicit original content. 'These new pictures-within-pictures are silent witnesses that allude to absence and presence, ' says Silano. He sees them as stand-in memorials, both for the now-missing models as well as those who originally consumed their images. Silano meditates on the meaning of the images and tearsheets that he collects over time. What continually excites him is precisely the 'slipperiness' of representation and meaning in photography as our culture shifts. 'The lens that we read [images] through today gives them new context and meaning, ' he observes. 'In another 30 or 40 years, they might very well mean something completely different'"--Light Work description online at source URL: https://www.lightwork.org/archive/pacifico-silano-the-eyelid-has-its-storms

Includes bibliographical references and index.Throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s, a radical cultural scene emerged in cities across the globe, finding expression in the galleries, nightclubs, and bedrooms of New York, London, Los Angeles, and Rome. In Lyle Ashton Harris: Today I Shall Judge Nothing That Occurs, the artist's archive of 35 mm Ektachrome images are presented alongside journal entries and recollections from a host of artistic and cultural figures. It offers a unique document of what Harris has described as "ephemeral moments and emblematic figures shot in the 1980s and '90s, against a backdrop of seismic shifts in the art world, the emergence of multiculturalism, the second wave of AIDS activism, and incipient globalization." As a young artist experimenting with installation, performance, and collage at the time, Harris obsessively photographed his friends, lovers, and individuals who either were, or would become, figures of influence, such as Marlon Riggs, Cornel West, bell hooks, Stuart Hall, Klaus Biesenbach, Nan Goldin, Catherine Opie, Glenn Ligon, and others. The images record the confluence of multiple international communities--gathering points for the exchange of ideas and the development of theoretical positions on art and culture that continue to resonate to this day. Together, these photographs and the journals not only sketch a personal history of a unique time of importance to contemporary art, but also show the development and shaping of Harris's eye and influences as an artist. -- From Publisher's website:Lyle Ashton Harris has cultivated a diverse artistic practice ranging from photography and collage to installation and performance art.

Includes bibliographical references."ICA Miami presents "Ektachrome Archive," a seminal body of work by New York-based artist Lyle Ashton Harris (b. 1965, Bronx, New York; lives in New York). Comprising thirty-six documentary photographs and fifteen journals dating from the early 1990s, the installation chronicles the emergence of a new generation of Black cultural producers and scholars in the wake of the Black Arts Movement and the conservative turn of the 1980s, and amid a continuing AIDS epidemic. Among the figures prominent in these documents are late filmmaker Marlon Riggs, curator Thelma Golden, activist scholars bell hooks and Michele Wallace, and artists Glenn Ligon, Gary Simmons, and Carrie Mae Weems. The archive documents critical events that initiated the emergence of radical thinking and artistic work in Black studies and Black cultural production in the mid-1990s, such as the Black Popular Culture and Black Nations/Queer Nations? conferences. It also presents institutional and academic spaces that hosted significant Black artists, such as the Independent Study Program at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, which Harris attended in 1992. This archive and the moment it documents are the bedrock--too often neglected or underappreciated--of a great deal of thinking that informs today's activism and critical perspectives of race, gender, and inclusion. "Ektachrome Archive" is the first project in a new initiative by ICA Miami inviting artists to engage in dialogue with Robert Gober's Untitled (1994-95), on long-term view on the museum's ground floor. Dedicated to the exchange of art and ideas, these exhibitions promote dynamic and complex discussions among artistic practices. "Ektachrome Archive" by Lyle Ashton Harris is organized by ICA Miami and curated by Gean Moreno, Director of the Knight Foundation Art + Research Center." -- Exhibition webpage:"Lyle Ashton Harris (b. 1965, New York) is one of the most important and prolific artists of the last thirty years. His work engages pressing questions around identity and queerness. The hundreds of photographs that make up the 'Ektachrome Archive,' shot at the end of the 1980s and in the early 1990s, entwine the personal and the political, the adventures of an artist coming of age in a newly globalized world and the emergence of a trailblazing generation of Black intellectuals and cultural producers asking new and deeply critical questions about race, gender, and empire."-- Back cover.
