“AMERICAN GOTHIC: A CODED WINDOW INTO GRANT WOOD’S QUEER LIFE” --- ART LECTURE BY IGNACIO DARNAUDE

Here you have my 25’ Lecture “AMERICAN GOTHIC: A CODED WINDOW INTO GRANT WOOD’S QUEER LIFE” for the Grant Wood Country Forum. In this Lecture I explain how, unable to express his homosexuality openly, Grant Wood created homoerotic rural paintings charged with same-sex desire. Get ready to see his work, including “American Gothic,” one of the most iconic paintings in history, with completely new eyes.
