NEW QUEER CINEMA RETROSPECTIVE: NEXT EXHIBITION AT THE GALLERY WRONG WEATHER
The Gallery at Wrong Weather will house the exhibition for "New Queer Cinema Retrospective" a film festival taking place at Porto, Portugal.
The truly transgressive and transdisciplinary spirit of this important movement in American independent cinema is now reinterpreted by contemporary portuguese artists. Each one -in their own language and medium- created an artistic production for one of the six films in the retrospective. These works will be exhibited at Galeria Wrong Weather throughout Queer Porto 2 and will be printed in a limited edition postcard collection, as a means of celebrating six seminal films in queer cinema history. António MV (Mala Noche, Gus Van Sant), Júlio Dolbeth (Go Fish, Rose Troche), Mauro Ventura (The Living End, Gregg Araki), Rita Roque (The Watermelon Woman, Cheryl Dunye), Sandra Araújo (Poison, Todd Haynes), and Von Calhau (Swoon, Tom Kalin) answered to the Festival’s call and immediately embraced this challenge.
