As a proud, black, lesbian woman she views black women in a way that goes against the historically male gaze that is dominant throughout art history. Her models are often important black women in her life like her lovers, but also her mother, who she didn’t fully connect with until later in her life. Her portraits are full of art historical references combined with visual nods to 70’s fashion. ‘Le déjeuner sur l’herbe: les trois femmes noires’ is an empowering reïnterpretation of the famous, controversial painting by Edouard Manet. Thomas replaces the two white man and the two nude, white women in the original painting with three black women, fully clothed in colorful patterns and bright makeup. The original painting caused quite a bit of controversy at the time, due to the unpolished sexual themes, which are emphasised by the nude woman in the front looking directly at the viewer. In Thomas’ version, all three women meet the viewer’s gaze, challenging the historically voyeuristic portrayal of women, particularly black women, in art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/2b157dcb-7a35-4fa6-9952-4756550e2603/MT+2.jpg Blog - Black History Month - Make it stand out Mickalene Thomas, Maya #7, 2015, rhinestones, acrylic and oil on wood panel https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/765c7d30-a84c-4805-95eb-b971dbf5310b/KW+1.jpg Blog - Black History Month - Make it stand out Kehinde Wiley, Willem van Heythuysen, 2005, oil and enamel on canvas, Brooklyn Museum Perhaps Kehinde Wiley is predominantly known for his presidential portrait of Barack Obama in 2017, as the first black artist to paint the president for the ‘America’s Presidents’ exhibition in the Smithsonian Portrait Gallery. However, instead of famous figures like Obama, Wiley often paints portraits of young black men from his own circles or men he meets in the street. He paints them in an Old Masters tradition, often in a vulnerable manner with colourful floral patterns in the background. In doing this he explores black masculinity and the standards black men are faced with. Simultaneously, much like Mickalene Thomas, Wiley paints black men into the museum, using a visual language that symbolizes wealth and status. Wiley often asks his models to choose an (art)historical figure to represent in his paintings, like St. Sebastian, who has been painted numerous times throughout art history and was eventually picked up by the LGBTQ+ community as a symbol of homoeroticism. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/8624ef10-f614-47ab-a952-d96699ba06d6/KW+2.jpg Blog - Black History Month - Make it stand out Kehinde Wiley, Morpheus, 2008, oil and enamel on canvas, Seattle Art Museum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/a89f83b1-3d62-4243-8865-b3e13514d5c7/JH+3.jpeg Blog - Black History Month - Make it stand out Juliana Huxtable, Untitled (Psychosocial Stuntin’), 2015, inkjet print Co-founder of Shock Value - a party where every gender or lack thereof is celebrated - Juliana Huxtable's art focuses on exploration of identity. Her afrofuturistic self-portraits are her breakout art as part of the series 'Universal crop tops for all the self canonized saints of becoming'. The series revolves around layering and investigating her own identities on inkjet print, both text and picture form. Huxtable went on to be inspired by language and politics, working those into the exhibition 'Juliana Huxtable' at Project Native Informant. These later works are an exploration into identity as well, weaving darker humor and paranoia into her photographs. Huxtable moves between genres, employing interdisciplinary works to traverse conventions and countercultures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/a8f19ced-4631-4f5d-bb32-a7b4053650fc/JH+2.jpg Blog - Black History Month - Make it stand out Juliana Huxtable, Untitled In The Rage (Nibiru Cataclysm), 2015, inkjet print, Solomon R.

It's a short story about bisexuality and interracial male desire and was unprecedented at the time. His collected works are considered "the missing piece of the jigsaw puzzle that comprise black history in the 20th century" (A. Glassman, Gay People's Chronicle). A lot of his later works include biblical imagery coupled with themes of homosexuality as can be seen on slide 5 and 6. Nugen was a prominent member of the Harlem Renaissance, less so in his own art and more as an aid to other artists. Thanks to his art resurfacing in 1983 in 'Black Men/White Men: A Gay Anthology' we gained a new insight into the lifestyle of black gay artists dring the Harlem Renaissance that we would not have without him. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/61523750-fa9d-4cd4-86ff-8082de599ba9/RBN+2.jpg Blog - Black History Month - Make it stand out Richard Bruce Nugent, The Model, ca. 1950-55, oil on canvas board https://www.thepinkcube.nl/blog/vick-quezada-on-the-necropolitics-of-the-pandemic-rasquache-art-and-survivalist-aesthetic monthly 0.5 2022-02-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/591fe746-8b1d-4781-a4e1-8355876d3d23/image0.jpeg Blog - Vick Quezada: navigating the post-apocalyptic settler world - Make it stand out Vick Quezada, Female to Fungi (FtF), 2020, digital photograph. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/e793ad7a-a6f4-4524-ab50-661b58dc4b24/Life-at-the-Precambrian-Beach-Vick-Quezada1.jpeg Blog - Vick Quezada: navigating the post-apocalyptic settler world - Make it stand out Vick Quezada, Life at the Precambrian Beach, 2019.

Besides exclaiming having only attraction towards women, Rainey also describes having a masculine appearance, with ‘collar and tie’, and talking to women ‘just like a man’. Women like this were visible in the blues scene. Like Gladys Bentley, a singer and gifted pianist who regularly wore tuxedos. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/ae915651-e901-49d4-8305-9647400e0b20/prove-it-on-me-ad-500x751.jpeg Blog - Ma Rainey’s ‘Prove it on me Blues’ - Make it stand out Paramount’s advertisement for ‘Prove it on me Blues’ https://www.thepinkcube.nl/blog/life-is-strange-a-queer-reflection-on-the-gaming-community monthly 0.5 2021-10-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634552061225-T84AM733Q68GZ5JHKVHV/Chloe-and-Max-in-Life-is-Strange-1280x720.jpeg Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community - Max and Chloe, Life is Strange https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634552063362-SRWRRV4ISB6VNRR0LI2Q/vlcsnap-2020-01-22-14h05m19s103.png Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community - Sean and Finn, Life is Strange 2 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634552062383-BAA9AI9I7UMPWEXQJV6V/maxresdefault.jpeg Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community - Alex and Steph, Life is Strange: True Colors https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634552467339-KZ94IEQAAV1DHUXTSBWT/EFcmuEiVUAIZVuv.png Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community - Make it stand out Me after one round of Overwatch https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634553305590-2IXJK62AWB3Q47ZTHWH2/Life-is-Strange-Episode-2-%E2%88%92-Out-of-Time-launch-trailer-screenshots.jpeg Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634553217175-TVC1PNWXJ4C31GWFEVEF/apps.20392.67790235293416531.974b34f0-9ec7-4cfd-80b0-034f12437df7.jpeg Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634553218211-WHBHXROOPZ0XQ1Y2YZ76/LifeStrange_11.jpeg Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634553218509-FPPPQKQ9RYTI4YXCYLOF/tidj69gm7ip11.jpeg Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634553218655-Y5RMW2YEZU705VKD9M11/17934ffc49ac88f58b1fc3506b1bf9d7.jpeg Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634553219622-9CTC8I9GXIC4HBLRIZJJ/20190528200255_1.jpeg Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634553226613-I29PVL2EMI08LTOGSW7X/lis_tc_launch_longlist_044-2.png Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634553220953-1F1QXUQIIHUVP127QZH7/00_header-n4lipmrop.jpeg Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1634553221931-ZE1U5BHONXL21NMHHICW/Life-is-Strange-True-Colors-Patches-Updates-Post-Launch.jpeg Blog - Life is Strange: a queer reflection on the gaming community https://www.thepinkcube.nl/blog/non-binary-awareness-week-qampa-with-anne-and-belinda monthly 0.5 2022-09-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1626608052532-64QI8MG3UETL4WDX4G7L/Screenshot+2021-07-18+at+13.34.00.png Blog - Non-binary Awareness Week: Q&A with Anne and Lynden Anne, they/them, 25, founder of the pink cube. and freelance queer art historian and curator.

It is the prototype for the worldwide symbol of LGBTQ+ pride we know today. These eight colours were included for their meaning: pink for sexuality, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for sunlight, green for nature, turquoise for art, indigo for serenity and violet for spirit. It was supposed to represent the diversity of the community. Within a year the pink strip had been removed, because the pink fabric used for them was not largely available, leaving a flag with seven colours. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624454638531-M52C0PG5R97WAGQBWNTB/1200px-Gay_Pride_Flag.svg.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline In 1979 the turquoise was removed and the indigo was changed to a royal blue. This is the rainbow pride flag that is currently used around the globe. The meaning of the colours have changed as well: red for life and sexuality, orange for friendship and healing, yellow for energy and vitality, green for serenity and nature, blue for harmony and artistry and violet for spirit and gratitude. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624454748401-MOSS2IXE4WFR8B9URE78/1280px-Bisexual_Pride_Flag.svg-600x360.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline In 1998 the bisexual pride flag was designed by Michael Page, after concluding that bisexuals felt almost no connection to the rainbow pride flag and wanting to make them feel included. Originally the colours symbolized: pink for same sex attraction, blue for attraction to the opposite sex and purple as a combination of these two, meaning attraction to both sexes. Today the colours are read in a different way: pink as attraction to female/femme people, blue for attraction to male/masculine people and purple for attraction to non-binary people. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624454837076-XHE7ADACICE931TKNZ27/1200px-Transgender_Pride_flag.svg.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline In 1999, Monica F. Helms designed the transgender pride flag. The baby pink and baby blue represent colours that are usually assigned to boys and girls. The white stands for the people who are in transition, or who identify as gender-neutral. The symmetry of the flag represents the idea that no matter how you fly this flag it is always correct, which signifies transgender people finding correctness in their lives. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624454931323-5Y4VQIMRNU35L19KZ92H/1024px-Lesbian_pride_labrys_flag.svg.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline The first lesbian flag was designed in 1999, by gay man and graphic designer Sean Campbell. It is an inverted black triangle with a white labrys in it on a purple background. The black triangle is a direct reference to the black triangles lesbians were made to wear by the Nazis during WWII. The labrys, a double-headed axe, is associated with the Amazons from ancient mythology. Lesbians had been using this as a symbol of lesbian feminism since the early 1970’s, as it is also a Mediterranean symbol for matriarchal power. The purple represents queer women and is connected to Greek poet Sappho, who used violets when she spoke about romantic love for women. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624455208121-P3NVZ259SPIWEUGTEX2R/download.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline The pansexual flag was designed by Jasper V in 2010. They introduced the flag to signify the difference between bisexuality and pansexuality (attraction to all genders), because it was thought that the definition of bisexuality (attraction to both male and female gender) excluded trans people. The colours represent the following: blue for people on the male spectrum, pink for people on the female spectrum and yellow for non-binary or genderqueer people. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624455269186-LL1OA5MCLYDXL08CPAKQ/download+%281%29.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline Also in 2010, photographer and video artist Marilyn Roxie designed the genderqueer flag. Genderqueer is a term that can mean different things for different people, but is generally defined as a gender identity that neither man nor woman, it could be a mix of genders, and it could be fluid. The flag is composed of three stripes and the colours represent: lavender for androgyny, white for people who are agender and dark green for gender identities outside of the binary. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624455406037-TDRI7K5ORIGWXNTSD548/file-53.jpeg Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline This asexual pride flag was chosen by vote by the asexual community in 2010. Its colours represent the following: black for asexuality or the lack of sexual attraction, grey for identities related to asexuality such as demi-sexuality and purple for the community. The white stripe represents allosexuality, which doesn’t describe the gender you’re attracted to, but rather the fact that you’re sexually attracted to someone at all. The term was introduced to avoid labelling one group as asexual and the other as ‘normal’, implying the former is not normal. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624455605504-ZHIDW9BCXPVZAZ0YPZZR/GenderFluid-vlag.jpeg Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline In 2012 the genderfluid flag was created by JJ Poole. The flag is meant to represent people whose gender expression changes over time. The pink represents femininity, white for all genders, purple for both masculinity and femininity, black for the lack of gender and blue for masculinity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624455688108-AMMIMOOKEFBNWXS7C7XT/Polysexualflag.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline This polysexual flag was designed in 2012 and published on Tumblr by Samlin. It is similar to the bisexual and pansexual flag, as all these sexualities involve the attraction to multiple genders. However, a separate flag was made because polysexuals are attracted to people of multiple, but not all, genders. Pink represents the attraction to people who identify as female, blue to those who identify as male and green to those who identify as non-binary and other gender identities outside the binary. Of course, there are many similarities between bisexuality, pansexuality and polysexuality, and the different identities mean different things to each individual. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624455908249-EAAVOMQ1FEQW4Y33ZEC4/Intersex-Flag.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline The intersex flag was created in 2013 by Morgan Carpenter. The flag has no stripes, but a purple circle on a yellow background. Yellow and purple are again neither pink or blue, staying away from the binary. The circle represents wholeness and completeness, the right to be who and how anyone the intersex community wants to be. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624455997853-3QW55T5ALFYVC6OJZ8C3/Greysexual.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline The greysexual flag was designed by Milith Rusignuolo and shared through Wikipedia on June 21, 2013. Greysexual refers to those who don’t completely identify with the label asexual, as they experience sexual attraction sometimes, but also don’t experience it as frequently as allosexual individuals. The purple symbolizes asexuality, grey for greysexuality and white for allosexuality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624456105198-14JMG3I0WMF049XM3482/Non-binary_Pride_Flag.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline The non-binary pride flag was designed by then seventeen year old activist Kye Rowan in 2014. It has four stripes, which represent the following: yellow for being outside traditional gender identities, white (the combination of all colours) for those who identify with having many genders, purple for fluidity of gender and people who identify as somewhere between male and female on the spectrum, and black (the absence of colour) for those who identify as agender. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624456229851-WEK396EQO5H85UPTZ6QN/aromantic__1__by_pride_flags_d8zu7h4-pre.jpeg Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline The aromantic flag was created by Cameron in 2014, and got published on Tumblr first. The green stripes represent the aromantic spectrum, the white represents non romantic forms of love and attraction, the black and grey represent the diversity of the aromantic community. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624456404268-OFGOM1VAVUL02BCX0MUP/2560px-Agender_pride_flag.svg.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline Also introduced in 2014 was the agender flag. It was created by artist Salem X, with the goal to increase agender visibilty. The black stripes represent the lack of gender, the grey stripes represent semi-genderlessness and the green stands for non-binary gender identities. As green is outside of the spectrum of blue and pink which widely represent the masculine and feminine, it is seen as the agender spectrum. The symmetry is comparable to that of the transgender flag, so it is correct no matter how you fly it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624635569865-DFV1H0AIKHIC4L8MP7D9/Demifluid.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline In 2015 Tumblr user Transrants created a set of demigender pride flags. Demigender is an umbrella term for people who only have a partial connection to a certain gender identity. This may include demiguys (with blue stripes in the flag) or demigirls (with pink stripes in the flag) and a number of other variations. The dark grey and light grey represent the partial nature of these genders, while the white represents gender neutrality. The colored stripes (blue, pink, yellow, rainbow) represent the gender each respective person may align with. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624635148068-5GF13RKIE30IUE1KDS6R/1200px-LGBTQ%2B_rainbow_flag_Quasar__Progress__variant.svg.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline Recently, in 2017, a new rainbow pride flag was designed in Philadelphia (US), with two additional stripes at the top, in the colours black and brown. The flag represents an intentional inclusion of black and POC people within the community, and the fight against racism. A year later, graphic designer Daniel Quasar introduced the progress pride flag, which moved the black and brown striped to the left, in the shape of a chevron. The colours white, pink and light blue, which together form the trans pride flag. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624635857288-29JC28K71UP9TU7VNPCX/lesbianprideflag-1620162637.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline The lesbian pride flag as we know it today has changed a lot over the years. The first version of the flag had a lipstick mark in the top left corner, to represent ‘lipstick lesbians’, which was made in 2010. Due to its exclusive representation of femme presenting lesbians, variations were made to be more inclusive for masculine presenting lesbians. So, in 2019, Emily Gwen redesigned the flag and included the colour orange, taken from butch flag that had been circulating. Gwen wanted to include butch, trans and gender non conforming people. The seven colours represent: dark orange for gender non-conformity, mid-orange for independence, light orange for community, white for unique relationships to womanhood, light pink for serenity and peace, mid-pink for love and sex and dark pink for femininity. A simplified, five stripe version emerged after. The colours now represent: dark orange for transgressive womanhood, light orange for community, white for gender non-conformity, light pink for freedom and dark pink for love. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624635997647-3LCT6JGNTMI8N5X1L0CN/prideflagqpoc-1617843757.png Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline In 2020, the QPOC variation of the pride flag gained more traction, due to the BLM movement. This flag represent solidarity between the queer community and the movement. It is a recognition of the importance and central role people of colour have had in the fight for equality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1624636051188-76NTI50QB21Y9TLHGC2A/0rbuDldLDzMdtg1v8MKFm8tedKTrz3EfwQD4080eTpc.jpeg Blog - The Great Big Pride Flag Timeline On June 8th 2021, a new progress pride flag was introduced by Valentino Vecchietti, which includes a representation of the intersex community. They spoke about it to GAY TIMES: “My intention in creating this iteration of the flag with visible intersex inclusion is to create some much-needed intersex joy. We also hope that it will increase allyship from the LGBTQA community.” https://www.thepinkcube.nl/blog/pride-fundraiser monthly 0.5 2021-06-01 https://www.thepinkcube.nl/blog/kunst-door-een-roze-bril-museum-villa-mondriaan monthly 0.5 2021-05-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1621861861191-L72MNQZA4833WY3VR4QE/121335122_2882931648472938_2897269205849849531_n-800x533.jpeg Blog - Kunst door een roze bril | Museum Villa Mondriaan - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.thepinkcube.nl/blog/happy-idahot monthly 0.5 2021-05-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1621246267986-UOSD83ZYPZI5ZODJAZSU/Together-Resisting-Supporting-Healing-1370x2048.png Blog - Happy IDAHOT! - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1621246793954-T62MBDRQOAZNGVBL4V2C/celebrate-the-power-of-love1-1346x2048.png Blog - Happy IDAHOT! - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1621247164504-CBUKWY2GW999PM63831U/Celebrate-Gender-Diversity1-1395x2048.png Blog - Happy IDAHOT! - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.thepinkcube.nl/blog/man-andor-woman-pierre-molinier-and-catherine-opie monthly 0.5 2021-04-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1617803565916-65RPCZJD8GCEOK0367JG/pierre-molinier-travesti.jpg Blog - Man and/or woman Pierre Molinier and Catherine Opie Pierre Molinier, Travesti, 1969 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606c802524ac3f3ee797c8f5/1617804784038-O0UDOBEDHZ45P0IVTHF8/oh+marie+mere+de+dieu.jpg Blog - Man and/or woman Pierre Molinier and Catherine Opie Pierre Molinier, Oh!
