CHRISTOPHER LACROIX – PART ONE: THERE IS A MINIMUM TO OPERATE PROPERLY
Date:
Fri, Jan 24th, 2020 to Sat, Mar 7th, 2020Time:
12:00 am
Description:
Through performance, video, photography, and text-based works, Christopher Lacroix’s practice interrogates the relentless effort of queer existence, an existence that both desires and rejects a normative system that makes deviant ways of being inadequate.
The paradox of aspiration and refusal results in a crisis of self which Lacroix enacts on a ludicrous scale. This is often embodied in performances, material explorations, puns and linguistic slippages infused with a tragic bathos in which he is exorcising the aspirations to belong and reject. What results is a queer masochism that explores abject self-deprecation as a means of self-preservation and resistance.
