3 QUESTIONS FOR ... die Tiefe Kümmernis*
Abstract:
Die Tiefe Kümmernis, a drag queen and museum art educator, answers three questions about her work in Vienna. She first explains the origin of her name and describes the beginnings of her work as an art educator. In the second answer, she explains how user-generated content on the internet makes the heteronormative, patriarchal canon of European art history more inclusive. In the last part she discusses the potentials and difficulties of online videos about queer art history.
