Queer Art Chats are a chance to build community among people interested in queer perspectives and art. No specialized understanding of art, art history, or queer theory is required; you already have all the knowledge you need to participate!
Each one-hour online session is an opportunity for a small group of registered participants to view and discuss works from MoMA’s collection. Participants and facilitators will work together to generate ideas about these works, highlighting LGBTQ+ perspectives.
This Queer Art Chat is hosted by MoMA fellows Isa Saldaña and Rattan Johal. Participants will discuss queer temporality,—and placemaking as reflected in works by artists Sunil Gupta and Akram Zaatari.

Participants are encouraged to stay for the duration of the program and are expected to be an active part of the discussion. To keep the conversations intimate, registration is not automatic. You will receive an email with details on how to join the program if your registration is confirmed. Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis. Once registration is full, a wait list will be offered.
Queer Art Chats take place over Zoom meeting and are best experienced through the Zoom app. If you do not have a working knowledge of Zoom or would like to request access accommodations, please reach out to us at [email protected].
Queer Art Chats are a chance to build community among people invested in queer and trans perspectives, art, and liberation. No specialized understanding of art, art history, or queer theory is required; our own experiences and perspectives will form the basis for participation. In each session, participants will work with facilitators and each other to collectively generate ideas about queerness and transness.
