Under the motto "Queer Art, Talk and Media", the new Helene Lange Centre for Queer Studies and Intermediality: Art - Music - Media Culture invites you to its kick-off event: Thu, 4 July 2013, from 5pm, A8 0-001.

At the centre of the Helene Lange College "Queer Studies and Intermediality" are queer or queer-designated works from art, music and media culture - productions that combine different forms of artistic expression and formulate alternatives to heteronormative structures and arguments. The research programme asks questions about the interfaces between intermediality, queer performativities and aesthetic concepts as well as about interferences between everyday practices and juridical discourse. The extent to which queer artistic statements function as anti-normalisation politics will be analysed and discussed.

The fellows are: Dipl. Kult.arb. Ina Beyer, Natascha Frankenberg, M.A., Dr des. Josch Hoenes and Rena Onat, M.A.

The Helene Lange Kolleg is headed by Prof. Dr Barbara Paul (Institute of Art and Visual Culture, spokesperson of the Kolleg), Prof. Dr Melanie Unseld (Institute of Music), Prof. Dr Silke Wenk (Institute of Art and Visual Culture) and Prof. Dr Andrea Sick (Hochschule der Künste Bremen, Department of Cultural and Media History/Theory).

We would be delighted to welcome you to the event! Please find the detailed programme in the flyer (attached as pdf).

Best regards, the Helene Lange Centre "Queer Studies and Intermediality"
