VISUAL CULTURES GUEST LECTURE SERIES
28 May 2009
BIRD LA BIRD:
Exploding Queer Femininities
This lecture will feature ideas and documentation of Bird Club, an
arts cabaret event featuring feminist strippers on roller skates,
political parody, pomo queer burlesque, sloganeering, brainwashing,
film, interactive performance and stand up comedy. Bird favours
collaborative ways of working and likes to bring creative people
together to support, challenge and amuse. Bird Club have also created
their own peerage system as an antidote to the lack of recognition
queer women receive.
BIRD LA BIRD: Bird la Bird is an artist who makes performance, graphic
designs, music, costumes, and street parties. She turned her back on
the market-driven art world to join the circus and has never looked
back.
5pm in the RHB Cinema
