How it works
Join Professor Andrew Lear for this groundbreaking virtual tour, and learn about the LGBTQ+ stories hiding—often in plain sight—in the world's most encyclopedia art museum. We hit every letter in LGBTQ+ the acronym as we explore many different cultures. Learn about:
- a Roman Emperor and the male lover who became a god
- the god Hermaphroditus and their popularity through the ages
- Classical Japanese actors playing women's roles
- relations between the *women* in a Belle Epoque Paris bordello
- the gender-queer star of 19th century French painting
- the gay man who was the first black artist on show at the Met
- and more.
Even if you already thought there was a lot of LGBTQ+ love behind the art in the museum, this tour will show you there is more than you ever imagined. It will open a whole new vision of art for you—a vision filled with all the colors the LGBTQ+ rainbow!
