What happened in the transition from inversion to homosexuality, gayness, and queerness? Some gay men fear losing their freedoms, some advocate for sexual restraint, while others, lost in the ever-expanding LGBTQIA+ ‘community,’ continue to make maximalist ideological demands of those outside. These responses mark a fracture in gay life. If there is some essence to homosexual desire, how is it being served by today’s gay culture and queer politics? Has the gay man — homosexual, queer, or inverted — rendered himself obsolete?
To mark the publication of Inversion, join contributors Travis Jeppesen and Ran Heilbrunn plus editors Amir Naaman and Pierre d’Alancaisez in conversation.
This event takes place at Village, Kurfürstenstraße 31/32, 10785 Berlin.
