press release

How can we create an archive of the private memories of gender, love and sexuality that have been erased by official archives and excluded from the writing of history? How do we record and store feelings and intimacy? The exhibition Lost and Found: Queerying the Archive presents a series of thought-provoking art works addressing these issues through artistic visions of histories compiled and performed from a queer perspective.

Participating artists: Kimberly Austin, Cecilia Barriga, Mary Coble, Aleesa Cohene, Michael Elmgreen & Ingar Dragset, Conny Karlsson, Heidi Lunabba, Al Masson, Benny Nemerofsky Ramsay, Flemming Rolighed, Tejal Shah, Ingo Taubhorn.

Curated by Jane Rowley and Louise Wolthers

The exhibition is produced in collaboration with Nikolaj, Copenhagen Contemporary Art Center. The presentation at Bildmuseet is supported by Umeå Centre for Gender Studies.
