Exposure, Edmonton’s Queer Arts and Culture Festival returns November 13 to 21, 2009, for nine provocative days of programming pertaining to the theme The Queer Body in Canada.<\/p>\n
This year Exposure will follow two veins: Sexing Queer Bodies and Sizing Up Queer Bodies.\u00a0 The festival will concentrate on the representation of our queer bodies: its sizes, shapes, colours, and configurations; how we have been liberated and empowered.\u00a0 Exposure 2009 seeks to explore queer views for and of the body in very personal, sexual, and spiritual terms.<\/p>\n
Chair of the Exposure Fesitval Board of Directors, Jennifer Alabiso comments, “We are extremely excited about the 2009 Exposure Festival’s bold programming which will afford an unique opportunity for Edmonton\u2019s diverse queer communities to see themselves exposed in a variety of events that are seldom depicted or even discussed in mainstream culture.”<\/p>\n
Through the literary arts, the visual arts, the performing arts, film and video, the festival will expose Edmonton audiences to new art and speak to the notion of what it is like to live life in a queer body.<\/p>\n
Exposure is one of only two such Festivals in all of Canada that showcases queer artists, cultural producers, and activists for queer and queer-friendly audiences.\u00a0 Exposure is creating awareness internationally about the contributions of queers to the art world and cultural life in Edmonton and around the world.<\/p>\n
