Corresponding to Queer Culture Year 2022, International Library of Fashion Research is collaborating with the National Museum of Norway on an inagural outdoor exhibition project themed ‘Queering Fashion’. For this project, outsider artists and key figures from the young and progressive international underground scene and queer community, were invited to delve into concepts of queerness via fashion, if not queerness of fashion. The exhibition project is also accompanied by an extended reading list integrating the permanent collection of International Library of Fashion Research as a living source for intellectual exploration and expansion.
Contributors include Dahir Hussein, Derek McCormack, Elise By Olsen, Francesca Granata, Jeppe Ugelvig, Lengua, Matthew Linde, Shahan Assadourian and Taylor Thoroski.
