‘[Katz's] ambitious state-of-the-field survey succeeds in capturing the ever-evolving hybrid intersectionality of queer aesthetics. The exhibition and its accompanying book, About Face, add immensely to this process.’ – Gay and Lesbian Review ‘[N]ever underestimate the value of a volume like this — particularly by someone like Jonathan Katz, who has tirelessly worked on queerness — that brings together figures who are, for the most part, not exhibited or considered together. Pride comes in different forms; more of this, please.’ –Hyperallergic ‘Demonstrate[s] the transformative power of queer art.’ – Dazed ‘Bring[s] a deeper understanding of the canon.’ – The Art Newspaper ‘The present moment sets the stage perfectly for About Face, ensuring its relevance and urgency for readers.’ – STIR ‘[This book] brings together five decades of exuberance, defiance, solidarity, heartbreak and metamorphosis from artists who have reimagined how we think about gender and sexuality.’ – The New York Times
