Highlights of Available Works TJ Ahearn Good Times Bad Times (Rolling Stones), 2018 Hand cut collage on vintage LP jacket with original vinyl 21 x 21 inches Framed Courtesy of the artist and lemon sky: projects + editions TJ Ahearn’s collages are created through a meticulous application of hand-cut imagery from both vintage and contemporary periodicals, books and other printed matter, which is glued onto the back of LP jackets. Most of the albums used date back to the 60s and 70s, and the original vinyl is included with the collaged piece. Ahearn creates imaginary environments through the inventive layering and juxtaposition of both banal and pop culture visual elements. The collages on view are from the artist's ongoing JUKEBOX series. TJ Ahearn lives and works between NYC and Miami. Ahearn attended School of Visual Arts in New York as well as both the University of Miami BFA Program and Miami Dade South Campus Fine Arts Program and Psychopolis Academy in the Netherlands. The work of TJ Ahearn is in many prestigious collections in the U.S. and abroad and has been exhibited at museums, galleries and art fairs internationally. Ahol Sniffs Glue Malt Liquor is Thicker Than Water, 2016 40 oz bottle, hot glue, and spray paint Courtesy of the artist Ahol, whose raw yet instantly recognizable street murals evaporate the divide between high and low art, often jumbles disparate themes from mass media, popular culture and marginalized pockets of society. He often draws inspiration from the urban environment and systems of society which dehumanize its inhabitants. -

Desire and Homosexuality in the '90S Latino Theatre Maria Teresa
SPRING 1999 87 Out of the Fringe: Desire and Homosexuality in the '90s Latino Theatre Maria Teresa Marrero The title of this essay refers to a collection of theatre and performance pieces written and performed between 1995 and 1998 by some of the most prolific Latino artists working in the late 20th century.l One the characteristics that marks them is the lack of overall homogeneity found among the pieces. Some, like Svich's Alchemy of Desire/Dead-Man's Blues (1997) and Fur (1995) by Migdalia Cruz, function within an internal terrain that the play itself constructs, making no allusions to identifiable, specific, geographic locations (be they Hispanic or Anglo). Theirs is a self-contained world set within what could be termed the deliberations of language, the psychological and the theatrical. Others, like Alfaro's Cuerpo politizado, (1997), Greetings from a Queer Señorita (1995) by Monica Palacios, Trash (1995) by Pedro Monge-Rafuls, Stuff! (1997) by Nao Bustamante and Coco Fusco, and Mexican Medea (1997) by Cherríe Moraga, clearly take a stance at the junction between the sexual, sexual preference, AIDS, postcolonial discourse and identity politics. While the collection of plays and performances also includes fine work by Oliver Mayer, Nilo Cruz and Naomi Iizuka, for the purpose of this essay I shall concentrate on the above mentioned pieces. The heterogeneous and transitory space of these texts is marked by a number of characteristics, the most prominent and innovative of which is the foregrounding of sexual identities that defy both Latino and Anglo cultural stereotypes. By contemplating the central role of the physical body and its multiplicity of desires/states, I posit this conjunction as the temporary space for the performance of theatrical, cultural, and gender expressions. -
