Title: WORSE Than QUEER:
Dimensions: variable
Medium: video and mixed media

Artist’s Description:

Worse Than Queer (WTQ) is a curatorial and distribution project, a video and performance event in a box that is mobile and malleable. Artists from the Bay Area, New York, Chicago, Texas, Austria, Iran and Sweden contributed short films that communicate a post-queer sensibility. These works are included in the box kit, which help to facilitate events including local live performance in addition to the video screenings, by supplying the playable DVD a data CD loaded with files of all of the related graphics: printable posters, handbills, submission forms for performance art, and a promo video that can be tailored to the time/date of each city's event. These box kits will be mailed out to producers in any city that wishes to host a Worse Than Queer event.
