Performed as part of The New Art Galleries Here & Queer A performative response to Three Women Bathing by Orlando Greenwood 1920 – The Clive Beardsmore Collection.
Here&Queer has been co-produced with members of the LGBTQ+ community. Community members have had the opportunity to take ownership of the Collections and the stories they tell, re-interpreting works from a queer perspective, and increasing the visibility of queer lives. The steering group explored both the Garman Ryan Collection permanent displays on Floors 1&2, and also delved into our Collections Store and found works they connected with in our Permanent Collection. https://thenewartgallerywalsall.org.uk/exhibition/herequeer/
