‘Images on which to build, 1970s-1990s’ is an exhibition divided into six sections at the Leslie-Lohman Museum, in New York City, emphasizing how pictures helped educate the world. ‘One of the greatest successes of the trans and queer liberation movement has been the visual assertion that trans and queer folk exist,’ says curator Ariel Goldberg.
What shines out from these images, originally circulated in slideshows, magazines, exhibitions and grassroots archives, is that ‘collective learning generates power,’ writes Goldberg. The exhibition runs until 30 July.
