Sarah Zapata at Institute 193, Lexington, KY
until September 20, 2019
For the first exhibition of her work in the South, Sarah Zapata is presenting an intimate series of watercolour studies made as references for her larger works. The drawings are one part of the artist’s research-steeped practice which routinely engages with the personal and collective histories tied to her intersecting identities as a queer, Peruvian-American raised in an Evangelical Christian household in Texas.

American Visionary Art Museum, Baltimore, MD
We wanted to share this wonderful video from the American Visionary Art Museum, produced by Human Being Productions.
Rebecca Hoffberger, founder and director of AVAM: "We believe creative acts of social justice is life’s highest performance art. So this is a museum that bonds with its visitors through emotion and ideal. We think Baltimore with all of its problems and all of its assets, is the perfect place for this museum."
