Presented as part of NEA 4 in Residence.
Tim Miller leads a performance workshop during Gay Pride Week 2013 for students, performers, artists, scholars, and interested nonacademics, culminating in a world premiere ensemble-devised performance on Friday June 28 at 7 p.m.
This workshop is currently at capacity. If you would like to be added to the a standby list, please contact exhibitq@newmuseum.org.
“This performance workshop brings together a group of queer-identified and queer-allied participants to create an original performance [Exhibit Q: Queer Bodies] that explores the charged border between our ‘queered’ bodies and society…our narratives and our politics…our private selves and public view. Over the course of one week, we will shape our discoveries into a public performance that invites the audience’s gaze, participation, and presence.”
