A gallery conversation in Chelsea between artist Steve Locke and scholar Robert Reid-Pharr, moderated by curator Evan Garza. It celebrates Locke's first career monograph, Steve Locke: I Said What I Said, and accompanies his exhibition of the same title at the gallery. The discussion explores Locke's interdisciplinary practice and his engagement with portraiture, desire, race, and memory, examining the histories of racial violence, anti-Blackness, and the Western art historical canon.
