SUMMARY:Artist In Conversation with Gerard O'Connor
DESCRIPTION:You’re invited to this In Conversation afternoon with Gerard O’Connor! \n\n\n\nPride Gallery Exhibit: Tableaux by Gerard O’Connor\nThese images present cinematic\, camp tableaux that reimagine and foreground LGBTIQ+ figures who have long been overlooked in mainstream history. From men dancing the tango\, to Victorian women archers\, drag performers of the 1940s\, star singers in Buenos Aires\, and queer narratives woven through goldfields life in Caulfield’s National Trust house ‘La Bassa\,’ these works inhabit and reclaim historical spaces. Trans bridesmaids at 1980s wedding parties further underline the continuity of queer presence across time. \nThis extraordinary photographic exhibition reflects the powerful collaboration between two artistic queer practitioners and soul mates Gerard O’Connor and Marc Wasiak which commenced in the mid-1990s. O’Connor a film maker/photographer and Wasiak a set designer/prop-maker are both acclaimed in their fields and together they constructed complex and large-scale images exploring the peculiarities of human behaviour and our changing social mores
