In the Galleries: Manifestations of Desire

The desire for beauty, romance, and connection, and to erotically consume, are all represented in this upcoming exhibit at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art. Feelings of desire, when successfully represented, can serve to minimize our differences and bring us closer. By using the theme “desire,” this exhibition draws together the work of 14 contemporary artists from China, Japan, Greece, Russia, Holland, Italy, Germany, Great Britain, and the U.S., working in photography and video. It is curated by Peter Weiermair.

Medium of Desire: An International Anthology of Photography and Video
December 18-March 16
