From the early 1900s until the late 1960s, pornographic films were predominantly short, black-and-white, and anonymously produced—known as ‘stags.’

STAG: THE ILLICIT ORIGINS OF PORNOGRAPHIC FILM

EXHIBITION DESIGN

VINTAGE THEATER INSTALLATION

The films displayed here demonstrate many of the major aesthetic and thematic trends and transformations in the history of this early illicit film industry. However, in offering the stag genre for a contemporary audience’s consideration, recognition has also been given to films that shed light on the cultural and social norms of the stag era and, in some cases, offer exceptions to them. These films offer insight into the era’s construction of male and female sexualities and its exclusion of non-heteronormative and non-Anglo perspectives and narratives.

STAG: THE ILLICIT ORIGINS OF PORNOGRAPHIC FILM

EXHIBITION DESIGN

In collaboration with Laia Abril, the exhibition displays her career-long research exploring the debate over abortion restriction worldwide.

Abril documents and conceptualizes the dangers and damages caused by women’s lack of access to legal, safe and affordable abortion. Her collection of visual, audio, and textual evidence weaves a net of questions about ethics and morality, and reveals a staggering series of social triggers, stigmas, and taboos around abortion that have been invisible until now.

EXHIBITION DESIGN

The exhibition combines many layers of the research and performance project into a spatial installation.

Continuing and expanding upon the theme of camouflage, the exhibition displays volumes of custom-printed fabric in hybridized patterns. In part, marching bands served as a form of camouflage that enabled AfricanAmericans to gather and occupy public spaces when otherwise prohibited during the era of Jim Crow segregation in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

MARCHING ON: THE POLITICS OF PERFORMANCE

EXHIBITION DESIGN

VIEWS INSIDE THE GALLERY This is the first museum exhibition devoted to the 60-year career of radical sex educator and feminist icon Betty Dodson (1929–2020).

No one believed in the emancipatory power of self-touch more than Betty. Told through her erotic paintings and drawings as well as Betty’s wise and bitingly humorous quotes, vintage photographs, videos, and ephemera, BAD chronicles Betty’s journey as young artist discovering her own sexuality and power in 1950s New York to an adult repressing her desires.

The Kaleidoscope-Periscope is an inhabitable viewfinder.

People leave the world of the city only to encounter a distorted world mixed with fragments of their own images.

The mirrored steel surfaces and the conical shell structure create a rigid kaleidoscope that produces patterns reflected from Biltmore Park?s tree canopy and the city skyline beyond.

Located at a parking lot, the Wall is an 8-foot-tall, renovated timber structural installation constructed by a group of three girls in one day.

The fast assembly on site resulted from the prefabrication and the preassembly brought by the nature of the design.

The structure survived all kinds of weather conditions including the blizzard in 2017 and remained sturdy and polished in the 8-month duration.
