A multidisciplinary and inter-academic exhibition that showcases an artistic panorama of sexual dissidence in the world today, through the work of artists and historians from 13 countries.
Sexual Dissidence (in Art Today) is a multidisciplinary and inter-academic exhibition that showcases an artistic panorama of sexual dissidence in the world today, through the work of artists and historians from 13 countries. The curatorial process began by asking each artist to express their vision of sexual dissidence in their country today, through a new or existing work. Students published their creations on a specially built Notion and decided together how these visions will coexist in the exhibition space. After the exhibition, the exhibited works will be published in a printed and digital book that will be distributed among the libraries of the collaborating institutions.
This initiative will showcase the work of MAFA and MACC students from UAL, which will be analyzed by MACA students from Sotheby’s Institute. It will also showcase the work of the Brazilian academic from the University of Brasília, Doctor Orthof, and the artists Theo Vasiludes and Niv Friedman from the Royal College of Arts. The idea is to reflect the diversity of sexual dissidence, through the diversity in the curation of the exhibition, showing works in video, photography, installations, sculptures, and performance by queer artists from 21 to 60 years old, from students to international academics, from 4 universities and 11 different countries.
