Please join us for a discussion with Andrew Gayed, PhD, about his new book, Queer World Making: Contemporary Middle Eastern Diasporic Art. In it he interrogates the performances of queerness, Arabness, and their intersections by reflecting on modern sexual identity, its relationship to colonialism, and how contemporary queer visual artists disrupt linear identity narratives.
