On June 8th, 2023, the cell and Franklin Furnace co-hosted "Pride as Performance: Preserving the Ephemeral" - a program I produced in conjunction with Elena Zavalev (CADAF) that included a "Life is Drag" installation, a panel discussion, and a live show featuring drag performers I recently documented for this archive. This event served as both a celebratory closing reception for my most recent 6 month "Life is Drag" residency at the cell, as well as CADAF's 3rd Web3 Collectors Salon.
"Pride as Performance" featured distinguished scholars, curators, artists, and performers:
● Martha Wilson (Franklin Furnace founder & performance artist)
● Rachel Rampleman ("Life is Drag" archive creator & multimedia artist)
● Carrie Able (internationally renowned multidisciplinary artist & metaverse pioneer)
● Joe E. Jeffreys (drag historian, documentarian, educator & pundit)
● Esther, The Bipedal Entity! (drag performer & multimedia artist)
● Fem Appeal (18 veteran of NYC’s drag & burlesque scenes)
● Stephanie McGovern (visual artist, performer & video artist)
● Junior Mintt (drag preacher & businesswoman)
● Sir Cum Sized (drag king, clown & klezmer musician)
Topics covered during the panel included:
● The vital role of documenting and archiving performance art, and more specifically, drag
● Web3 / NFT opportunities for performance artists
● The transformation of performance art and drag in the digital era
The show after the panel featured performances by Mimi, Silk, Fem Appeal, Sir Cum Sized, X-Emma & TANK.
In partnership with Franklin Furnace and the cell.
