Homage: Queer lineages on video

Homage: Queer lineages on video presents works by seven contemporary artists who use moving images to pay tribute to cultural figures and histories that have been formative, if often (but not always) overlooked. The works in the exhibition, all made over the last two decades, explore how lens- and time-based media have enabled artists to articulate desiring and melancholic modes of relationality across generations. Intervening in commemorative genres of image making—including portraiture and documentary—through performative acts, selective appropriation, and imaginative staging, these works produce and problematize queer forms of kinship.
