This video beautifully showcases the powerful artworks in "Art after Stonewall, 1969-1989"which now leaves New York to headline Art Basel season in Miami (opens Sept. 14 through Jan. 5). This unprecedented survey of LGBT artmaking from the first two decades following the Stonewall Riots features 200 works, including art by Warhol, Arbus, Chicago, Wong, Hockney, Riggs, Lankton, Mapplethorpe and many more.

The show's curator, Jonathan Weinberg, is interviewed in this video. Miami's art community is proud to propel the year-long celebration of Stonewall's 50th beyond Pride month, by selecting this important exhibition as one of the city's headliner museum shows during Art Basel.
