Dirty Looks celebrates our eighth anniversary with a touring retrospective program of signature delights that queer the pop cannon and (under)mine history for all of her unanswered questions. Ranging from digital drag revisionism to post-bohemian celluloid, Dirty Looks: Eight Years On reassesses the past through a fiercely queer and politicized lens: who brought us here? and where are we now? Selected across eight years of screenings, from 16mm films, super8 transfers, Hi8, HD video and Getty stock footage, this DL Cliffs Notes spins circles around contemporary queer subjectivities, snarling with a punk zeal and a utopian demand for more.
