How does an artist capture the essence of a community through a mural? On this episode of Queer Voices, we speak with the talented gay Swiss artist Mark Bauer, who shares his creative journey and mission while working on a new project at the Menil Drawing Institute. We unpack the depth of his research process and how his artwork reflects the vibrant and diverse experiences of Houston's queer community. Additionally, hear from local activist C. Patrick McIlvain, who discusses his recent honor as Grand Marshal for Pride 2024 and the inspiring legacy of LGBTQ+ activism inherited from his mother's groundbreaking work with P-Flag.
Brett Cullum kicks things off with a compelling conversation with Mitchell Greco, the Associate Artistic Director at Stages. We're given an insider's look at his latest directorial project, "A Case for the Existence of God," a two-person play featuring Adam Gibbs and Bradley Atuba. Brett also provides an exciting rundown of the Pride Month activities you won’t want to miss, ensuring your calendar is packed with all the best celebrations Houston has to offer. Plus, we dive into Mitchell’s personal life, learning about his supportive relationship with his husband, Brandon Weinbrenner, and their adorable dog, Clyde.
