About the Event: Celebrate the launch of the exhibition catalog for Teddy Sandoval and the Butch Gardens School of Art with ICI and The Latinx Project at NYU, and join us for a conversation between co-curators C. Ondine Chavoya and David Evans Frantz. The exhibition and catalog not only celebrate the legacy of artist Teddy Sandoval (1949–1995)—a central yet understudied figure in Los Angeles’s queer and Chicanx artistic circles, who was an active participant in avant-garde movements in the United States and internationally—but also reflect Chavoya and Frantz’s ongoing efforts to share the work of queer Latinx artists.
Through their curatorial practices, Chavoya and Frantz help to preserve the legacies of those who have been largely neglected by mainstream art historical and museological narratives.
In this talk, Chavoya and Frantz will reflect on their curatorial process, highlighting the deep research and relationship-building with artists and their friends and families that guided their work. They will also explore their own long-term collaboration and the cooperative practices they have
