Join the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art in New York City for a closing celebration of the exhibition "Dreaming of Home: Finissage with the Curator." Taking place on January 6, 2024, from 4-6pm at the museum's location on 26 Wooster Street, this event offers a unique opportunity to engage with the community and curator Gemma Rolls-Bentley. 

"Dreaming of Home" draws inspiration from Catherine Opie's iconic 1993 photograph, Self-Portrait/Cutting, to explore the struggles and desires of queer individuals in finding a sense of belonging and acceptance. The exhibition marks the 30th anniversary of Opie's influential work, and each featured artist builds upon her legacy by centering the queer body in their art. Through various mediums, the exhibition provokes an intersectional dialogue and poses important questions about where queer and trans individuals can truly feel at home. 

To further delve into the themes and artworks presented in "Dreaming of Home," a limited-series podcast of the same name accompanies the exhibition. Hosted by Gemma Rolls-Bentley, the podcast features interviews with artists such as Catherine Opie, Zackary Drucker, Rene Matić, Christina Quarles, and Chiffon Thomas. Tune in on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or your preferred podcast platform to gain further insights into the artists' creative processes and their interpretations of the concept of home.

The Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art is committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment for all visitors. The museum is wheelchair-accessible, offers gender-neutral restrooms, and provides large print didactics. Additionally, staff are available to assist individuals with accessibility needs. The nearest accessible subway station is Broadway-Lafayette St., located approximately 0.6 miles away from the museum. For any questions or access requests, please email info@leslielohman.org.

Don't miss this opportunity to engage with thought-provoking art and join the conversation surrounding queerness and home at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art in New York City.

Central Park

Fall Viewing Attractions

Walking through New York&#39;s Central Park, it seems to fall into the gentle cracks of the steel forest. Morning light penetrates the forest, spreads powder and white brocade on the cherry blossom avenue, the wind is outdated petals fall, and the corners of the skyscraper soften into a background sound in the flower shadow. The city code on the bench is the most moving. The cold chair was stroked by the fingertips, and the short text on the nameplate hid the New Yorker&#39;s temperature: &quot;Give my wife Carol, because she loves Central Park, and I love her&quot; - the separation of life, the young encounter, the mother and son bonding, all condensed into a dew in the wood grain. When high school students spread out books and laughed on the sheep lawn, and when the reciting of Shakespeare&rsquo;s poems drifted from Cherry Hill to the lake, the park became an emotional resonant box, full of human narratives that transcended language. In the afternoon, I closed my eyes in the Ramble Forest area. Bird song and stream sound woven into natural white noise, suddenly understand the deep meaning of Olmsted: this 3.4 million square meters of green lung, originally dedicated to &quot;the handicrafts of tired industrial workers&quot;, so that people who can not travel far can drink nature here. The boat house pier at dusk is the most magical, The wooden paddles smashed the red-stained lake, and the wild ducks swam through the reflection of Manhattan. The hustle and bustle of the city sank to the bottom, leaving only the breathing in the shadow of the oasis of the oars. &quot;When the whispers of the bench fell into the palms with the cherry blossom rain, I knew that the oasis in this concrete wasteland, It was New York&#39;s prose poem to the world. &quot;&nbsp;
