The Museum of Trans Hirstory & Art is a massive undertaking by artist Chris E. Vargas to document and share trans and queer experiences in the art world. In the new book Trans Hirstory In 99 Objects, Vargas takes his MOTHA concept to the page, exploring trans art, activism, artifacts and resistance across more than four centuries to "chart a gender-neutral, trans-centric hirstory of art." The talk at the Hammer will also feature Zackary Drucker, Edgar Fabián Frías, Raquel Gutiérrez, Amos Mac, and Uri McMillan.
