“Cock, Paper, Scissors” Book Launch and Collage Workshop

Admission is free.

Please join ONE to celebrate the publication of the Cock, Paper, Scissors exhibition catalogue. This event will include a hands-on collage workshop lead by artist Suzanne Wright using duplicate pornographic materials collected at ONE.

Designed by Kimberly Varella of Content Object and published in collaboration with the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art, this catalogue presents work by a group of fifteen intergenerational queer artists, newly commissioned essays and interviews, and historical and archival reprints. Cock, Paper, Scissors is the first exhibition and catalogue of its kind to examine queer collage practices within a historical context.
