‘A minority within a minority’: celebrating queer artists of colour
At a new exhbition, opening in pride month, the often overlooked work of LGBT black and Latinx artists is being spotlighted
It’s pride month, which means gay culture is at the forefront all over the world. But beyond the rainbow flag emoji, there’s one art exhibition in San Francisco that digs beneath the surface to shine light on what the curator calls: “A minority within a minority.”
Opening 29 June at the San Diego Art Institute, Forging Territories: Queer Afro and Latinx Contemporary Art showcases the works of 20 regional LGBTQ artists who have been overlooked in some way or another.
