Houston Center for Photography presents In Passing, a solo exhibition by Genevieve Gaignard, which will be on view Sept. 8-Oct. 22, 2017. Gaignard will give a talk the night of the opening on Friday, Sept. 8, 6 p.m. The talk is followed by the opening reception, which is free and open to the public. 

In Passing brings together several bodies of work made between 2015 and the present, mapping the artist’s ever-evolving performance of identity through large-format self-portraits and vernacular installations. Through an array of campy stereotypes that range from a suspicious housewife peering out a window to a Divine-esque drag queen, Gaignard interrogates her own intersectional identity as a biracial woman as well as the often murky, difficult terrain of race, class, and gender in contemporary culture
