Who’s Afraid of Stardust?

Who’s Afraid Of Stardust?

Positions of Contemporary Queer Art

Author: Nina Vollmer

The Kunsthaus and Kunsthalle Nürnberg present the international group exhibition titled “Who’s Afraid of Stardust? Positions of Contemporary Queer Art.” Featuring the works of 30 artists, the exhibition delves into various aspects of queer life, making significant contributions to the ongoing discourse on diversity. The exhibition is offering unique perspectives on societal power structures.

While the primary focus of this comprehensive magazine is on the participating artists, it also serves as a valuable resource for readers exploring the realm of queerness for the first time. Beyond profiles of the artists, the magazine includes a glossary with key terms, interviews with scholars specializing in gender and queer studies, discussions on queer pop and film history, ballroom culture, queer fashion, the history of Prides in Germany, and the evolution of §175. The magazine also includes literary and socio-political contributions from figures such as Hengameh Yaghoobifarah, Daniel Schreiber, and Benno Gammerl. All in all, “Who’s Afraid Of Stardust?” offers a multi-perspective view of queer culture.
