Linda Stein "The Fluidity of Gender"

Flomenhaft

This event has ended.

The Flomenhaft Gallery presents The Fluidity of Gender: Sculpture by Linda Stein, a 5-year touring exhibition/lecture/performance traveling to more than 20 United States museums and universities thru 2015.

Josie M. Coyoc, Pilobilus dancer, previously with Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company, will wear one of Stein’s sculptures, accompanied by Lindsay Harwell, student at The Juilliard School. Next, Lindsay will speak about the fluidity of gender with his mother, Lauren Embrey, philanthropist/activist/writer/actor/dancer involved in human rights work intersecting with the performing arts.

Linda Stein’s art has been passionately engaged in tearing down all forms of gender prejudices, as she increasingly focuses on celebrating the fluidity of gender. Art historians Christina M. Penn-Goetsch, Margo Hobbs Thompson, AnnVollman Bible and others have written extensively about how Stein continues to “break down boundaries between female, male, feminine and masculine” doing so “with the clear intent of dismantling a hegemony that limits individuals and values one gender over another.”
