Fen-Ma Liuming Walks the Great Wall (Ma Liuming, 1998, black and white photograph and gelatin silver print. The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden.)

"Fen-Ma Liuming intentionally clashes their ambiguous femininity with the rough, jagged nature of the Great Wall that they walk on. This work doesn't just represent the struggle of a queer individual, but the struggle of standing up to a giant like the Chinese government as a measly citizen."

Cube Collages By Tony Berlant.

“Everything I have ever seen, ancient or just-made, has been filtered through me into my art.”

— Tony Berlant

Tony Berlant is a contemporary American artist known for his mixed-media sculptural collages. Laboriously composed from photo-printed plywood, tin scraps, and metal sheets, the artist reassembles the pieces like a jigsaw puzzle. Reordered, the works transform into ecstatic abstractions, flowers, and surreal landscapes. “The more personal and introspective an artwork is, the more universal it becomes,” Berlant said. “[Artists] go into the inner world—the world of the imagination—to discover not only themselves but the unchanging essences of humanity.” Born on August 7, 1941 in New York, NY, he received his BA, MA, and MFA in sculpture from the University of California in Los Angeles. He currently lives and works in Santa Monica, CA. Berlant's work can be found among the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C., and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

Untitled from Wheel of Life (Jessica Diamond, 2023, mixed media wall drawing. Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden.)

“When I looked at this poem, I instantly jumped to cunnilingus. The shortness of it doesn’t read to me as the shortness of the oral sex interaction, but rather the short and uneven strokes that one makes with their tongue, fingers, toys, etc. on their partner’s vagina.”

Joaquín Torres-García, New York Street Scene, 1920. Oil on paper mounted on cradled wood panel.

Torres-García was an Uruguayan-Spanish artist who lived in New York in the early 1920s. In 1922 he described his style as "expressionistic and geometric at the same time, and very dynamic."
