Paradeisos
AU$40.00 Read MoreAdd to cartChristopher Koller
Melbourne: M.33, 2011.“Produced over a period of 12 years, Christopher Koller’s plastic camera photographs of gardens and otherwise mediated greenery forge a very different atmosphere to what one would expect from such subject matter. Warped, stretched and almost affronting in their blurred optical qualities, the images that fill Paradeisos are vivid and almost visceral in their odd beauty.” (publisher’s blurb)

Melbourne: Council of Trustees of the National Gallery of Victoria, 2022.“Queer: Stories from the NGV Collection is more than an exhibition catalogue. This 628-page publication expands on the themes explored in the NGV’s Queer exhibition to document the queer past, present and future of the NGV collection. More than 60 essays from authors with comprehensive knowledge of the historical and contemporary subjects encompassed by the NGV’s Queer project are presented alongside stunning reproductions of more than 200 works from the NGV collection, either by queer artists or engaging with queer issues. The essays in Queer: Stories from the NGV Collection explore the history of LGBTQ+ activism; the creation of queer spaces and communities; queerness as an artistic strategy; the expression of love, desire and sensuality; queer aesthetics; and the concepts of camp and the fantastic.” (publisher’s blurb) This extensive monograph catalogue sold out in the year of publication and has not been reprinted.

A History of LGBTIQ+ Victoria in 100 Places and Objects
AU$50.00 Read MoreAdd to cartGraham Willett; Angela Bailey; Timothy W. Jones; Sarah Rood
Melbourne: Australian Queer Archives and Heritage Victoria, 2021.“A History of LGBTIQ+ Victoria in 100 Places and Objects was commissioned by Heritage Victoria to highlight the rich, diverse and unique history of queer communities in Victoria and to demonstrate how these communities are reflected in the places, objects and landscapes that surround us. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer, asexual, sistergirl and brotherboy (LGBTIQ+) people are, and always have been, an integral part of Victorian social, political and cultural life. However, the experiences and voices of queer communities have not commonly been included in the historical record and, consequently, queer heritage has remained largely invisible. This report identifies 100 places, objects and collections that have specific and unique meaning to Victorias contemporary queer communities. Identifying and exploring the meaning of these places, objects and collections to members of the LGBTIQ+ communities who have suggested them adds depth and richness to Victorias history and heritage. It also makes visible the stories and experiences of communities that have, until recently, been ignored and at times actively persecuted.” (publisher’s blurb)
