The Warhol’s Voices program is an ongoing series of public dialogues and gallery talks by various scholars, community activists and artists. These programs provide context and spark dialogue about the issues raised in the museum’s exhibitions. During the Genesis Breyer P-Orridge and Caldwell Linker exhibitions, Voices will present a diverse range of speakers discussing lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer and transgender (LGBQT) themes related to these exhibitions.

Jenny Johnson’s poems have appeared in The Best American Poetry 2012, The Southern Review, Blackbird, The Collagist, Troubling the Line: Trans and Genderqueer Poetry and Poetics and elsewhere. She also won Beloit Poetry Journal’s Chad Walsh Poetry Prize in 2011 for her poem “Aria” and is currently a Lecturer at the University of Pittsburgh where she teaches writing.

Please note that this event begins on the 7th floor in the Genesis Breyer P-Orridge: S/HE IS HER/E exhibition.
