QAF 2013: TransgressionNow

Queer art and politics have always included notions of transgression but in the media age ideas of transgression have changed radically. What we once saw as transgressive is now commonplace when the internet can put any manner of visual digital material on everyone’s screen in seconds. But the digital age is also embedded in one of the most conservative social environments in many decades, creating many dichotomies and contradictions. TransgressionNow looks at where Queer artists still transgress social, gender, and political boundaries and what that looks like now.
