Professor Amelia Jones’s exhibition “Queer Communion: Ron Athey” Now Open

Queer Communion: Ron Athey, curated by art historian and performance studies scholar Amelia Jones, offers the first retrospective of the work of Los Angeles-based performance artist Ron Athey. On view at Participant Inc., the exhibition and related publication (co-edited by Jones and Roski professor Andrew Campbell) explore Athey’s practice as paradigmatic of a radically alternative mode of art-making as queer communion—the generous extension of self into the world through a mode of open embodiment that enacts creativity in the social sphere through collective engagement as art.
