Geno Rodriguez (Eugene Rodriguez) is an artist, curator, and founder of The Alternative Museum (1975-2001), a groundbreaking New York space supporting politically engaged and underrepresented artists. His photography is held in major museums worldwide. A cultural activist and arts leader, he organized hundreds of exhibitions advancing diversity and inclusion.
At 85, an artist and curator discovers aphantasia and finally understands decades of struggle with art school instruction, finding that a tactile "add and subtract" method, first in assemblage, then photography and curating, was the workaround that quietly shaped an entire career.
