"EveryBooty" Presents Artist/Curator Ricardo Osmondo Francis and Artist Gail Thacker of Leonidesarts and Guest Artists June 26-30 at the Brooklyn Academy of Music Fisher
According to Ricardo Osmondo Francis, Project Curator, “Conceptually this project is a more lyrical view of "humanity" and our need to love and be loved through the eyes of LGBTQ identified visual artists and performing artists. This project is neither political or polarizing. Instead this project presents a more thought provoking inclusive view of each other while challenging the social political assumptions we often place on each other. Through painting, drawing, mixed media, photography dance
