“Collecting Creating & Curating” – Artist Talk w/Oscar Zamora Graves
Presentation and discussion led by the artist with a possible Q&A. His art embraces the bold spirit of the 1960s by placing scantily clad beefcake models and vintage drag queens in vibrant, psychedelic, fantasy settings. His collages blend nostalgia with queer maximalism to offer a unique perspective of modern gay erotic art through a fusion of physique and fantasy.
