Artist Talk: Mary Coble – Performing Queer Resistance
\nSaturday, November 14, 2015 at 19:00
\nSchwules Museum*, Berlin, Germany<\/p>\n

\"MaryMary Coble, artist and educator will discuss queer strategies of resistance through artistic practice and activism. Coble\u2019s live work and multimedia installations revolve around queer politics, poetics and histories, often imploring
\nunpredictability, messiness and failure as ways of subverting mainstream expectations and desires. <\/p>\n

This talk will include examples from Coble\u2019s work such as: Blood Script (2008) where hate speech was gathered from a public and tattooed inklessly on the artist\u2019s skin as an act of solidarity; Fighting Cocks (2011) a durational performance in a locker room exploring queer masculinities in gendered spaces; Deferral (2013), a collective protest calling for the gay hero in face of the discriminatory practices that disallow gay men from donating blood; and Performing Defiance (2015) where the gesture of the raised fist combined with extensive glitter bombing was repeated ad absurdum pointing to the political power of \u201ctactical frivolity\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
