The Story of Queer Modernism

  • Lost Art Salon 245 South Van Ness Avenue San Francisco, CA, 94103 United States (map)

Join Lost Art Salon for their next ArtTalk covering the artists who defined queer identity and aesthetic throughout the early and mid 20th century. From Jean Cocteau and Paul Cadmus to Romaine Brooks, Beauford Delaney, Tamara de Lempicka, David Hockney, and Keith Haring, these visionaries expressed their queer identities both openly and subtly, creating boundary-pushing works that continue to shape art and culture today. They will be doing a deep dive into the fascinating recent discovery of a lost collection by Sydney Engelberg (1912-1997), featuring intimate depictions of male camaraderie and affection during his service in WWII. This hour-long lecture led by Lost Art Co-Owner, Rob Delamater, is tailored to art lovers and anyone eager to explore the intersection of art, identity, and history.

RSVP is required to attend the ArtTalk from 6pm - 7pm. A public reception will follow, which is open to the public with a reservation.
