In this public talk, Anne Vetter will discuss their photography exhibition that's currently on display in Lane Hall. Vetter’s photography exhibition, “Love is Not the Last Room” is made in collaboration with the artist’s family—their parents, their brothers, and their partner. It is an examination of play and leisure, tension and freedom. Through photographs, Vetter processes how they learned to relate in their most intimate connections, and how they relate now. This project explores queer familial relationships, and uses Vetter’s own gender fluidity as a lens to examine the gendered experiences of their family members.

A reception with both artists, Rafael Neis and Anne Vetter, will follow the talk.

The fall exhibits are presented with support from the Department of Women's & Gender Studies, the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies, the Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic Studies, and the CEW+ Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

Anne Vetter (b. 1994) lives and works in California and Massachusetts. They are a Jewish-American artist. Their work is focused on play, family systems, performance, and the fluidity of identity. Their current project Love is not the Last Room is made in collaboration with their family- parents, brothers, cousins, and partner- and explores gender and attachment. Vetter also photographs and writes for magazines and newspapers such as the New York Times Sunday Magazine, The Atlantic, The Washington Post, and the Washington Post Magazine.
