This discussion explores Greene’s work, the politics of queer art production in Los Angeles during the late 1980s and early 1990s, and the stakes related to queer curatorial and artistic practices. Moderated by David Frantz, curator of Tony Greene: Amid Voluptuous Calm, with Monica Majoli, artist and curator; Lawrence Rinder, director, UC Berkeley Museum and Pacific Film Archive; Matias Viegener, artist and writer; and artist Millie Wilson.

The curators of four exhibitions featuring the work of Tony Greene: Judie Bamber and Monica Majoli (Schindler House), David Evans Frantz (Made in LA/Hammer), Richard Hawkins and Catherine Opie (Whitney Biennial), and John Neff (Iceberg Projects) will discuss the reemergence of the late artist’s work, its relevance today, and how it can be framed in a contemporary discourse.  They will also offer a contextualization of the artist’s work in the realm of his personal world.
