"Queer Modernism" at the "Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen" (art collection North Rhine Westphalia) is the first exhibition in Europe to present the previously underestimated but groundbreaking contribution of queer artists to modernism.
In their programs, queer artists created alternatives to prevailing lifestyles that placed the influence and perspective of gender and sexuality on styles, movements, and programs at the center of their artistic work.
