​“I am hap­py to be part of the first exclu­sive­ly queer pre­sen­ta­tion at the Get­ty Center.
“This event is sig­nif­i­cant and his­toric as the Get­ty has com­mit­ted the muse­um to queer art pres­ence dur­ing Pride, 2025.

I applaud Getty’s com­mit­ment to the GLBTQ com­mu­ni­ties dur­ing these dark times in Amer­i­can pol­i­tics,” he continued.

“It took all my adult life as an artist to make it to the Get­ty. I will proud­ly take my flowers.”
