Queer Exhibition in Munich Explores Identity and Metamorphosis
The exhibition 'Facets of Queer' at Størpunkt Gallery in Munich runs until December 15, 2018, featuring 16 artists including Valentina Murabito, Benyamin Reich, and Seungyea Park. Curated by Stephan Stumpf and Yeliz Kaiser, the show aims to demystify the term 'queer' and make it more accessible. Murabito uses analog photography on materials like cement and steel to explore limits and metamorphosis, while Park's pen-on-paper works depict solitary figures with deformed faces, addressing anxiety and the concept of the 'monster' in queer theory. The exhibition is organized in cooperation with Amazon and Clifford Chance.
