_My New Favourite Book


_'Some Faggy Gestures' by Henrik Olesen - Strange and beautiful.

'Since the mid-1990s, Berlin-based Danish artist Henrik Olesen has used collage, sculpture and Minimalistic spatial intervention to investigate the social construction of identity and its historiography. Through the appropriation of source images and contextual shifts, Olesen probes the associations between homosexuality and its past and present criminalization.'

Martin, Thank you so much for introducing this book to me, and thank you for such an inspirational day on Friday.
