This three-hour workshop is directed toward Edmonton's emerging queer artists working in all media. Bring your questions, aspirations and realities. Lunch will be served.
RSVP by Wednesday, Nov. 28 to todd@exposurefestival.ca.
As I don't know the performace and visual artists Shawna Dempsey and Lori Millian, I have decided to quote the University of Lethbridge webpage for background information about them:
"Shawna Dempsey and Lorri Millan are best known as performance artists. Their work is experimental, passionate, and irreverent. Collaborators since 1989, this duo were catapulted into the national spotlight with the controversial, now world-renowned performance piece, “We’re talking Vulva”. Since then, this duo has toured extensively throughout North America, Europe, Australia, and Japan. Their film and video works have been screened in venues as far-ranging as women’s centres in Sri Lanka and the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. They have also created installation (Archaeology and You, for the Royal Ontario Museum); published books, (Lesbian National Parks & Services Field Guide to North America, Pedlar Press); and curated exhibitions."
I wish the organizers and participants of this workshop all the best with their queer projects.
