On queers and amateur art collecting

whateverjeanne:

I buy queer art whenever I can. It’s important to me to collect queer art and make room for it in my queer house and my queer life. We keep each other company. And because I write about queer, trans and feminist art and artists it’s especially meaningful to me. It’s about value and processes of valuation, and taking control of how value is assigned across bodies and aesthetic practices. If you know Barbara Browning you’ve heard her talk about Marx’s dancing table and the commodity fetish. The object is alive.

As a graduate student and adjunct instructor I can’t afford to buy art in the traditional ways. I collect needlepoint and embroidery from yard sales and flea markets ever since my mom gave me a collection of needlepoint by numbers “paintings” she made in the 1970s - of Picasso, Jewish holidays, and geometric patterns. A few years ago, at the New York Book Arts Fair, I bought The Advantages of Being A Lesbian Artist, a guerrilla assault by Ridykeulous on the infamous Guerrilla Girls poster for $20. I framed it and I hung it next to my 1980s playtex machine.

The at the WHACK! art and the feminist movement exhibited in L.A. I bought a print by Mary Beth Edelson, The Death of Patriarchy, a collage based on Rembrandt’s The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Tulp, for $100. It’s a signed limited edition she made especially for the exhibit.

At last year’s Small Works for Big Change, I bid on two works of art. I took home a print by Faith Wilding, of Judy Chicago’s Feminist Art Program and Womanhouse fame for $100. I was also honored to take home a paper weaving by my friend L.J. Roberts for $100. Between my adoration from afar of Faith Wilding and my inspiration through friendship with Roberts - and the opportunity to donate money to support to daily operations of the Sylvia Rivera Law Project - I left the art auction feeling incredibly lucky. I really appreciate the efforts of the organization and the artists to make art accessible, community driven, affordable and political. Bidding opens at $25 or $50 on most artworks. So channel your inner art collector this Saturday, February 25 for Small Works for Big Change!

Yes!

Hey ya’ll - help me out?

I have a few pieces left over from my last art show that I need to sell. Discounts for friends of course. If you’re interested, message me and I will give you a discount code for the etsy one or just give you the paypal details and we can do a private sale.

“Counting Stars” details are here -(this one is really big and looks super awesome in real life). Friends don’t pay any shipping and if you really want to negotiate price, I am willing.

“Thurston for Moore” is around 17” and is just a personal sale - $40 (you can see how it looks on my wall in the last image

Both are mounted on 1/8” PVC and are ready to hang (they float about 1/2 from the wall on square dowels)

I’m back at work today and I’m hoping it’s going to be quiet because I have exactly 1 million things to do - both personal and professional.

I’ve also got to order more art and I just can’t even deal with how expensive this stuff is. I’m broke and crabby about that. But at least I’m going to have a kick-ass art show in a few weeks! BUT Damn - I NEED MONEY.

Also in other super-rad news, Beth is coming to chicago to see me and I am so super stoked. We’re going to have the most fantastic crew at the FKA NYE party. Y’all gonna be there? Word on the street is that it will sell out, so you may want to pre-purchase tickets.
