BREAKING: In response to our lawsuit, the National Endowment for the Arts will no longer force grant applicants to certify that they won't promote "gender ideology."

In 1997, Trenton Doyle Hancock wrote on a scrap of blank paper: LIKE GUSTON BUT BLACKER AND WORSE. This note marked the beginning of his long engagement with Philip Guston’s cartoonish depictions of hooded figures.
