Queer Multiples

Please join us on March 13th from 6:00-8:00 PM to celebrate the launch of Queer Multiples, presented in a new exhibition space within our College Street shop.⁠
⁠
Queer Multiples presents works by queer artists drawn from Art Metropole’s inventory and spanning from 1978–2025. The featured works trace a queer tradition of artists’ multiples permeated with absurdity, sexuality, and magic, gesturing towards the slipperiness of everyday objects. The exhibition considers the form of the multiple and its potential to subvert (or queer) normative and capitalistic expectations.⁠
⁠
Queer Multiples features works from Derya Akay, Barbara Balfour, Adrien Crossman, Jess Dobkin, Brendan Fernandes, General Idea, Terence Koh, Phillip Lý, Van Maltese, Julius Poncelet Manapul, Philip Leonard Ocampo, Robert Anthony O'Halloran, Peaches, Cleopatria Peterson, P.G. THING CO. (Paige Gratland), Finn Simard, Maximilian Suillerot Wilke, Derek Sullivan, Chelsea Thompto, Mary Tremonte, and Tobaron Waxman.⁠
⁠
Queer Multiples will be launched in tandem with Fan Wu’s Reactivating the Archive presentation on Terence Koh’s edition A Beaver Tail (2008). Reactivating the Archive is a series of artist talks and performance lectures responding to works published by Art Metropole over our 50-year history. Please join us at 6:00 PM for a performance from Fan Wu, followed by a reception.
