Since 2016, the Museu de Arte de São Paulo Assis Chateaubriand has centred its exhibition program on exploring different histories, with each year featuring a large-scale, international and transhistorical group exhibition, paired with an exquisitely produced catalogue. Following the bestselling titles 'Afro-Atlantic Histories' and 'Indigenous Histories', 'Queer Histories' is the next chapter in this cross-cultural, cross-disciplinary survey series exploring underrepresented or marginalised narratives.Gathering more than 200 artworks from public and private collections in Brazil and abroad, 'Queer Histories' is organised into seven sections: “Love, family and communities,” “The sacred and the profane,” “Signs and spaces,” “Activism and archives,” “Survival,” “Queer Abstraction” and “Visibility.” While many of the artists featured in 'Queer Histories' are working in the wake of the HIV/AIDS pandemic and its profound impact on queer and trans communities, the exhibition goes beyond artists who identify as LGBTQIA+, approaching queerness as a lens through which to reinterpret the world, to queer history and to reclaim erased narratives. This compendium is a critical resource for understanding how art and history continue to function as sites of resistance and transformation in LGBTQIA+ lives.Artists include: Andrea Geyer, Andy Warhol, Beverly Buchanan, Catherine Opie, Claude Cahun, David Wojnarowicz, Etel Adnan, Félix González-Torres, Glenn Ligon, Kia LaBeija, Leonilson, Martin Wong, Miguel Ángel Rojas, Peter Hujar, Roberto Burle Marx, Rotimi Fani-Kayode, Salman Toor, Tseng Kwong Chi, Tuesday Smillie, Yuki Kihara, Zanele Muholi.
