Phranc: Queer for 50 Years
To celebrate Phranc鈥檚 fiftieth anniversary of coming out, Queer for 50 Years opens on October 11th, National Coming Out Day. For this body of work, Phranc sculpted boxing shorts, boxers, and socks out of cardboard, kraft paper, and thread, then painted the surfaces with vivid colors and stripes. As a self-described multi-disciplinary 鈥渜ueer artist, Jewish butch lesbian folksinger and cardboard cobbler鈥� Phranc has devoted her life to uprooting patriarchal norms and celebrating uncensored self-expression through various creative endeavors. Showcasing the importance of clothes and undergarments to gender expression, Queer for 50 years is a continuation of Phranc鈥檚 ongoing exploration of her own queer identity as she airs out her paper laundry.
