Opening May 18, 2025, Chloe Dzubilo, The Prince George Drawings is the first posthumous solo exhibition of Chloe Dzubilo (1960-2011) curated by Nia Nottage and Alex Fleming in cooperation with NYU Special Collections and Visual AIDS. Chloe Dzubilo was an artist, musician, and transgender activist whose work and advocacy transformed New York City's cultural landscape and public policy throughout the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s.
Dzubilo lived at The Prince George, a HASA (HIV/AIDS Services Administration) supportive housing site from 2000 to 2011, and translated her everyday experiences as an HIV positive Trans woman into acerbic line drawings that narrated scenes from her daily life. This body of work serves as a crucial historical record of Trans experience through Dzubilo’s own struggle for self-determination in an era of widespread alienation and ableism toward those living with HIV/AIDS. The Prince George Drawings presents Dzubilo’s legacy through the lens of her life commitments to Trans-inclusive public policy — healthcare, housing, and the protection of teens and youth.
