Voguing, drag, clubbing, and the politics of communities making different performances of gender and sexuality visible.

Reveling in the geometric, mathematical and perceptual relationship between sound and form, this programme features a landmark work of experimental film in Kubelka’s Arnulf Rainer; a complex, enduring and expressive of structuralist or flicker films.
This event honoured those individuals who achieved the status of Icon during the period of 1986-1990.
