The LGBTQ+ Center will host filmmaker Chet Pancake who will introduce his film “Queer Genius" on Thursday, June 17, at 6:30 p.m. in the Mountainlair Gluck Theater. This film has won several international awards and continues to get a lot of attention.
In the filmmaker's words, "’Queer Genius’ is a creative documentary featuring fine artist portraits of QPOC & GLBTQ Female experimental artists. The film examines each artist’s creative life, personal challenges and asks the provocative question ‘What is genius?’”
“Each subject provides a unique and personal perspective on new ways to think about and subvert the concept of what visionary practices mean from a queer, female, fine arts perspective discussing and preserving queer female avant garde legacies across generation,” Pancake added.
