Kick off the opening of Gary Simmons: Public Enemy, and Miami Art Week, with a conversation between artist Gary Simmons and exhibition curators Jadine Collingwood, René Morales, and Franklin Sirmans.

Gary Simmons: Public Enemy, co-organized with the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, is the first comprehensive career survey of the richly layered work of Gary Simmons and features nearly 70 sculptures, paintings, photographs, works on paper, and installations, as well as several large-scale wall drawings the artist will create on-site. Simmons, Collingwood, Morales, and Sirmans will discuss how Simmons and his work have played a key role in situating questions of race, class, and identity at the center of contemporary art discourse.

Over the course of his career, Simmons has aimed to expose and analyze histories of racism in visual culture. He has revealed traces of these histories in sports, cinema, literature, music, architecture, and urbanism, while drawing heavily on genres such as hip-hop, horror, and science fiction.

Simultaneous interpretation into American Sign Language, Haitian Creole, and Spanish will be provided.

Cost: Free

Author Lucas Hilderbrand’s new book The Bars Are Ours: Histories and Cultures of Gay Bars in America, 1960, will be released on November 21 and at 6:30pm EST on December 5, 2023, Hilderbrand will be live on Zoom and Facebook to discuss and answer questions.

For the better part of a century, gay bars have operated as the most visible institutions of the LGBTQ+ community. In The Bars Are Ours, Lucas Hilderbrand offers a panoramic history of gay bars, showing how they served as the medium for queer communities, politics, and cultures. Hilderbrand cruises from leather in Chicago and drag in Kansas City to activism against gentrification in Boston and racial discrimination in Atlanta and beyond; from New York City to Houston and San Francisco, with Latinx venues in Los Angeles and additional stops in Denver, Detroit, Seattle, Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Orlando, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Texas, Hildebrand artfully demonstrates the intoxicating, even world-making roles that bars have played in queer public life across the country.
