Dirty Looks presents Chris E. Vargas, Video and Museum Maker
Dirty Looks presents the first-ever West Coast survey of early work by Chris E. Vargas, trans organizer, artist and activist.

WITH CHRIS AND GREG, a sitcom about a queer odd coupleone liberal, one radical; one transgender, one notVargas has produced a body of work that is politically subversive, culturally acute and utterly hysterical. From Angelina Jolie to the first pregnant man, Liberace to RuPaul, these works challenge the homonormative, queering pop culture and rewriting some of LGBTQ hirstories messier lessons in slightly less closet-y light.
