Queer and Feminist Publishing in Art and Culture
Curators: Stefanie Grünangerl, Librarian, Museum der Moderne Salzburg; Jürgen Tabor, Curator, Generali Foundation Collection
Venue: Museum der Moderne Salzburg, Rupertinum, Generali Foundation Study Center
Magazines, zines, and comics are important platforms for feminist and queer perspectives in art and culture. The exhibition highlighted not only the importance of these media for the dissemination and visibility of feminist and queer art, but also showed how publishing as artistic practice can be rethought in queer-feminist terms. The exhibition presented a broad spectrum of publications: Magazines from the second-wave women's movement which envision a union of art and politics; alternative forms of self-publishing and zine culture in which the do-it-yourself principle anchors an emancipatory and empowering stance; and publication projects that draw cross-connections to questions of migration, postcoloniality, and dis/ability.
The exhibition was conceived and realized in collaboration with students of the Paris Lodron University Salzburg and the Mozarteum University Salzburg.
