Friday, November 17, 6–8 PM: Screening and Panel conversation
- Metamorphosis (2018; 25:23 min) shows two drag artists transforming themselves before performing in drag, accompanied by ↗︎ the score Metamorphosen by Richard Strauss, arranged by the ↗︎ Norwegian Chamber Orchestra. Metamorphosis is filmed ↗︎ in Chicago at Berlin Nightclub, with drag artists ↗︎ Lucy Stoole and ↗︎ Benji Morino / Girlboyfriend.
- Queen! (2018; 4:19 min) is named after the weekly drag event at the ↗︎ club smartbar, Chicago. While making this film Gunnufsen and her collaborators filmed the queue as club goers posed more than willingly. This is a legendary sight in itself; a place to see and be seen.
- ↗︎ Queering the Museum — Preus (2022; 3:17 min) by Karmaklubb* with Cassie Brødskive and Frida Marida. This video is starring the Drag activist Frida Marida (Hani Assaf, LEB) and artist and Drag academic Cassie Brødskive (Jens Martin Hartvedt Arvesen, NOR) presenting a raw response — touching, teasing, and perceiving the architecture of the Preus Museum in Horten, Norway.
