ARTSPACE MAGAZINE: How Steven Evans turned two disco classics into one timeless neon work

Steven Evans knows how a moment on the dancefloor can echo down the years. Over the past three decades, this Houston-based multimedia artist, writer and curator has explored the connections between music, language, memory, identity, and collectivity via his sculptural and installation work.

Evans serves as Executive Director of the award-winning arts organization FotoFest International, and has held a number of senior positions within the arts, including Managing Director of Dia:Beacon and Director of the Linda Pace Foundation in San Antonio, while simultaneously maintaining his own career, showing his work in numerous cities across the globe.

Through September 6, the New York City AIDS Memorial hosts Evans’ s sculptural installation Steven Evans: Songs for a Memorial as part of its ongoing series of visual art and cultural programs that illuminate the history and future of the HIV/AIDS epidemic in New York City.
