The show features the work of street graffiti pioneer Albert “Al” Diaz; photo legend Adrian Buckmaster; rising photographer Lanee Bird; music icon Gavin Rayna Russom of LCD Soundsystem; two-time Radio City Music Hall showstopper Zachery Allan Starkey; Brooklyn techno talent Julia “The Oracle” Sinelnikov; and Elite model Carmen Julia Duran Garcia for her art of fellow OUT magazine-profiled model August Gonet and 23 other U.S. and international artists.

Partial proceeds for the show will go to Project Reach, a youth and adult collaboration of multiracial, multi-gender, grassroots, anti-discrimination, youth organizing center.Project Reach also has a strong LGBTQ youth community.

Co-curators Rob Redding and Furusho von Puttkammer said that this is an important show giving a voice to many who are overlooked from both the past and present.

“We stand on the shoulders of giants and we are happy to present a show that includes all the elements of queerness in NYC and beyond,” Redding said.

One Art Space, Project Reach, and curators von Puttkammer and Redding, two bisexual people of color, come together to inject sincerity back into queer.

Redding is an American painter, performance artist, language artist and professor. He is known for his award-winning national talk show “Redding News Review Unrestricted” and for publishing 10 consecutive Amazon best-sellers. His abstract “Smear Paintings” have been showcased all over the city, country and Europe. NYC art critic Per Larson, who in the past has compared the work to James Baldwin and called the art “iconic”, said his last solo show in Chelsea entitled “BIG BLACK ̶C̶O̶C̶K̶ CANVAS: SIZE matters – in ART!” overwhelmed with “technical wizardry to grab his interest, and meander around within the square without time, and without a mind to get in the way. Viewing at last with his gut.”… “It’s pure Warhol and Maplethorp.”

von Puttkammer is an American painter and performance artist who has been active in the NYC art scene for the past five years. Using her alter-ego, a bald and expressive cartoon-inspired character named Anchovy, von Puttkammer presents her anxieties and frustrations concerning art, history, sexuality, human connection, and the facets of identity through oil painting and mime-like movement. von Puttkammer’s paintings and performances have been featured in over 20+ shows and magazines both in New York and internationally. In 2014 she was awarded the Silas H. Rhodes Scholarship for Cartooning at School of Visual Arts, and graduated from SVA in 2018 on the Dean’s List and with Honors in Fine Arts.
