Join an online symposium featuring Elliot Montague, Emma Frankland, Texas Isaiah, Tourmaline, and Vick Quezada.
Trans*Revolutions is a virtual symposium featuring artist-activists whose work is inspired by and engaged in imagining trans* and genderqueer histories, performances, identities, and aesthetics. Elliot Montague (film), Emma Frankland (performance), Texas Isaiah (photography), Tourmaline (film), and Vick Quezada (multimedia and performance) will deliver artist talks, followed by a roundtable and Q&A. The symposium will explore such questions as: How do trans* theoretical lenses, artistic practices, and performances address and resist ongoing violence against trans* people, in particular those of color, and fashion alternative modes of activating, archiving, transforming, and transfiguring revolutionary landscapes and embodied knowledges across space and time?
